Get rid of special 'typeid(...)' LL types for TypeInfos

Browse source 
Use the real LL type representing the TypeInfo (sub)class directly and
from the beginning, i.e., already for the declaration, instead of
building an extra LL struct type (firstly opaque, then finalized when
defining the TypeInfo via RTTIBuilder).

To get this to work in all cases, the dummy TypeInfo for opaque structs
is now a complete TypeInfo_Struct, with all 11/13 fields zero-
initialized. Previously, it was a special TypeInfo (no extra
TypeInfo_Struct fields) with TypeInfo_Struct vtable, something which DMD
also emits.

Also refactor the RTTIBuilder finalize() interface - e.g., don't set the
linkage there (had to be reverted for ModuleInfos) and only take the
global variable to be defined. Cast the field initializers if required,
e.g., null pointers to appropriately typed function pointers for
TypeInfo_Struct etc.
