I don't love the name, however it simplifies the code and is a worthwhile change. If/when we come up with a better name, we can do a search/replace.

The idea is to segregate Objective-C "object" pointers from general C pointers (utilizing the recently added ObjCObjectPointerType). The fun starts in Sema::GetTypeForDeclarator(), where "SomeInterface *" is now represented by a single AST node (rather than a PointerType whose Pointee is an ObjCInterfaceType). Since a significant amount of code assumed ObjC object pointers where based on C pointers/structs, this patch is very tedious. It should also explain why it is hard to accomplish this in smaller, self-contained patches.

This patch does most of the "heavy lifting" related to moving from PointerType->ObjCObjectPointerType. It doesn't include all potential "cleanups". The good news is additional cleanups can be done later (some are noted in the code). This patch is so large that I didn't want to include any changes that are purely aesthetic.

By making the ObjC types truly built-in, they are much easier to work with (and require fewer "hacks"). For example, there is no need for ASTContext::isObjCIdStructType() or ASTContext::isObjCClassStructType()! We believe this change (and the follow-up cleanups) will pay dividends over time. 

Given the amount of code change, I do expect some fallout from this change (though it does pass all of the clang tests). If you notice any problems, please let us know asap! Thanks.

Remove ASTContext parameter from DeclContext's methods. This change cascaded down to other Decl's methods and changes to call sites started "escalating".
Timings using pre-tokenized "cocoa.h" showed only a ~1% increase in time run between and after this commit.

methods, class methods, and property implementations) and instead
place all of these entities into the DeclContext.

This eliminates more linear walks when looking for class or instance
methods and should make PCH (de-)serialization of ObjCDecls trivial
(and lazy).

uses of getName() with uses of getDeclName().  This upgrades a bunch of
diags to take DeclNames instead of std::strings.

This also tweaks a couple of diagnostics to be cleaner and changes
CheckInitializerTypes/PerformInitializationByConstructor to pass
around DeclarationNames instead of std::strings.

a new NamedDecl::getAsString() method.

Change uses of Selector::getName() to just pass in a Selector 
where possible (e.g. to diagnostics) instead of going through
an std::string.

This also adds new formatters for objcinstance and objcclass
as described in the dox.

ObjCImplementationDecls and sees if a ancestor class defines a method with the
same selector but with a different type signature. Right now it just compares
return types, and mainly looks at differences in primitive values. The checking
will be expanded in the future.
