In cases where it is legal, we should prefer poison values over
undef values.
This replaces undef with poison for aggregate construction and
for uninhabited types. There are more places where we can likely
use poison, but I wanted to stay conservative to start with.
In particular the aggregate case is important for newer LLVM
versions, which are not able to handle an undef base value during
early optimization due to poison-propagation concerns.
...and remove it from `PointeeInfo`, which isn't meant for this.
There are still various places (marked with FIXMEs) that assume all pointers
have the same size and alignment. Fixing this requires parsing non-default
address spaces in the data layout string, which will be done in a followup.
Currently some `Allocation`s are interned, some are not, and it's very
hard to tell at a use point which is which.
This commit introduces `ConstAllocation` for the known-interned ones,
which makes the division much clearer. `ConstAllocation::inner()` is
used to get the underlying `Allocation`.
In some places it's natural to use an `Allocation`, in some it's natural
to use a `ConstAllocation`, and in some places there's no clear choice.
I've tried to make things look as nice as possible, while generally
favouring `ConstAllocation`, which is the type that embodies more
information. This does require quite a few calls to `inner()`.
The commit also tweaks how `PartialOrd` works for `Interned`. The
previous code was too clever by half, building on `T: Ord` to make the
code shorter. That caused problems with deriving `PartialOrd` and `Ord`
for `ConstAllocation`, so I changed it to build on `T: PartialOrd`,
which is slightly more verbose but much more standard and avoided the
problems.
