Set the dead_on_return attribute (added in LLVM 21) for arguments that are passed indirectly, but not byval. This indicates that the value of the argument on return does not matter, enabling additional dead store elimination.
This directory currently contains some LLVM support code. This will generally be sent upstream to LLVM in time; for now it lives here. NOTE: the LLVM C++ ABI is subject to between-version breakage and must *never* be exposed to Rust. To allow for easy auditing of that, all Rust-exposed types must be typedef-ed as "LLVMXyz", or "LLVMRustXyz" if they were defined here. Functions that return a failure status and leave the error in the LLVM last error should return an LLVMRustResult rather than an int or anything to avoid confusion. When translating enums, add a single `Other` variant as the first one to allow for new variants to be added. It should abort when used as an input. All other types must not be typedef-ed as such.
