Fixes ABI mismatch when e.g. padding a 28 byte union from a
20 byte member, where previously, an i64 would be emitted,
yielding a 32 byte LLVM struct size on ulong.alignof == 8
platforms.
Test case will follow on the 2.064 branch.
This not only reduces code duplication, but the unification
also enables code a la StructLiteralExp to handle classes
(for CTFE class constant support in 2.063).
This is just to improve clarity, as it was rather non-obvious
what of the code also applied to classes before.
IrTypeAggr::createInitializerConstant would currently belong in
IrTypeStruct, but this will be refactored anyway.
This also allows us to enable the assert in IrType::IrType.
Unfortunately, this is mostly a "peace of mind" commit, there
doesn't seem to have been a bug actually caused by the transitory
duplicate IrTypePointer/IrTypeStruct instances.
The remaining xyz2llvm static methods are not exactly pretty,
they should probably just be folded into get.
This is based on Item 2 of "More Effective C++". In general, the C++ cast operators are more expressive and easy to find,
e.g. by grep. Using const_cast also shuts up some compiler warnings.
crucial difference being special handling of `llvm::Type`s so they get printed
by name rather than printing their full representation (which can be positively
*huge*).
This allows re-enabling some logger calls that were disabled due to extreme
verbosity.
