Optimize emission of `dynamic_cast` to final classes.
- When the destination is a final class type that does not derive from the source type, the cast always fails and is now emitted as a null pointer or call to __cxa_bad_cast. - When the destination is a final class type that does derive from the source type, emit a direct comparison against the corresponding base class vptr value(s). There may be more than one such value in the case of multiple inheritance; check them all. For now, this is supported only for the Itanium ABI. I expect the same thing is possible for the MS ABI too, but I don't know what guarantees are made about vfptr uniqueness. Reviewed By: rjmccall Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D154658
