Add support for attribute 'noescape'.
The attribute informs the compiler that the annotated pointer parameter of a function cannot escape and enables IRGen to attach attribute 'nocapture' to parameters that are annotated with the attribute. That is the only optimization that currently takes advantage of 'noescape', but there are other optimizations that will be added later that improves IRGen for ObjC blocks. This recommits r313722, which was reverted in r313725 because clang couldn't build compiler-rt. It failed to build because there were function declarations that were missing 'noescape'. That has been fixed in r313929. rdar://problem/19886775 Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D32210 llvm-svn: 313945
