As a first step to getting mandatory inlining out of the business
of 'linking' (walking the function graph and deserializing all
referenced functions), add a new optimizer pass which links
everything in the mandatory pipeline.
For now this is mostly NFC, except it regresses an optimization
I made recently by linking in bodies of methods of deserialized
vtables eagerly. This will be addressed in upcoming patches.

It was only used in a few tests. Those tests now use -emit-sil instead
of -emit-silgen, with some functions marked @_transparent and a few
CHECK: lines changed now that the mandatory optimizations get to run.
At some point, pass definitions were heavily macro-ized. Pass
descriptive names were added in two places. This is not only redundant
but a source of confusion. You could waste a lot of time grepping for
the wrong string. I removed all the getName() overrides which, at
around 90 passes, was a fairly significant amount of code bloat.
Any pass that we want to be able to invoke by name from a tool
(sil-opt) or pipeline plan *should* have unique type name, enum value,
commend-line string, and name string. I removed a comment about the
various inliner passes that contradicted that.
Side note: We should be consistent with the policy that a pass is
identified by its type. We have a couple passes, LICM and CSE, which
currently violate that convention.
There are now separate functions for function addition and deletion instead of InvalidationKind::Function.
Also, there is a new function for witness/vtable invalidations.

It has been generally agreed that we need to do this reorg, and now
seems like the perfect time. Some major pass reorganization is in the
works.
This does not have to be the final word on the matter. The consensus
among those working on the code is that it's much better than what we
had and a better starting point for future bike shedding.
Note that the previous organization was designed to allow separate
analysis and optimization libraries. It turns out this is an
artificial distinction and not an important goal.
