cff0f1f446 Implement another D-specific pass: -dgc2stack
This one promotes GC allocations to stack memory when it can determine it's safe
to do so.
Not all GC calls are recognized yet (in fact only one *is* recognized for now).
Needs metadata, so disabled for LLVM versions that don't support it.

0df1e34eb2 Implement first D-specific optimization pass: -simplify-drtcalls.
It uses the machinery of the standard -simplify-libcalls pass, but optimizes
calls to the D runtime instead of calls to C libraries.

At the moment, these optimizations are implemented by this pass:
 - Avoid the runtime call for `arr.length = newlen` if it can determine that
   the new length isn't longer than the old one.
 - Ditto for `cast(T[]) arr` if it will clearly always succeed.
   (e.g. if the length of the original array is zero, or if the old element
   size is a multiple of the new element size)
