1d3724666f tests: convert about 400 tests to the new mangling by using the -new-mangling-for-tests option
When the new mangling is enabled permanently, the option can be removed from the RUN command lines again.

959e19d7bc Add an optimization to eliminate a partial_apply if all applied arguments are dead in the applied function.
This consists of 3 parts:
1) Extend CallerAnalysis to also provide information if a function is partially applied
2) A new DeadArgSignatureOpt pass, similar to FunctionSignatureOpts, which just specializes for dead arguments of partially applied functions.
3) Let CapturePropagation eliminate such partial_apply instructions and replace them with a thin_to_thick conversion of the specialized functions.

This optimzation improves benchmarks where static struct or class functions are passed as a closure (e.g. -20% for SortStrings).
Such functions have a additional metatype parameter. We used to create a partial_apply in this case, which allocates a context, etc.
But this is not necessary as the metatype parameter is not used in most cases.
