[clangd] Pass Context implicitly using TLS.
Summary: Instead of passing Context explicitly around, we now have a thread-local Context object `Context::current()` which is an implicit argument to every function. Most manipulation of this should use the WithContextValue helper, which augments the current Context to add a single KV pair, and restores the old context on destruction. Advantages are: - less boilerplate in functions that just propagate contexts - reading most code doesn't require understanding context at all, and using context as values in fewer places still - fewer options to pass the "wrong" context when it changes within a scope (e.g. when using Span) - contexts pass through interfaces we can't modify, such as VFS - propagating contexts across threads was slightly tricky (e.g. copy vs move, no move-init in lambdas), and is now encapsulated in the threadpool Disadvantages are all the usual TLS stuff - hidden magic, and potential for higher memory usage on threads that don't use the context. (In practice, it's just one pointer) Reviewers: ilya-biryukov Subscribers: klimek, jkorous-apple, ioeric, cfe-commits Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D42517 llvm-svn: 323872
