Assumptions:
- class methods do not change the object's vtable pointer
- loads through vtable pointer are invariant (vtables are immutable throughout program life)
And use `IrTypeClass::getVtblType()` to get the vtable LLVM array
type, instead of deriving it from the `IrClass::getVtblSymbol()`
global (invoking that function may define the vtable!).
I've hit some compiler crashes for the Symmetry code base, on
Windows only. I guess the problem surfaced due to
`-link-defaultlib-shared`, which on Windows causes some vtables of
instantiated classes to be defined whenever accessing the vtable
symbol. I don't have a reduced test case unfortunately.
Primarily to more robustly deal with potentially truncated const-
folded offsets (according to target bitness), such as after
https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/14299, where we've been emitting
a 64-bit GEP with index 4294967286 for the `codegen/gh2865.d` test
case and 32-bit targets (vs. 64-bit index `-10` before that new
upstream truncation).
Switch back to 32-bit GEPs for non-64-bit targets, and accordingly
to a 32-bit index `-10` for that test case.
`NewExp.type` can apparently newly be a yet-unresolved `TypeIdentifier`.
Resolve it in that case to a `TypeClass` now.
Also defer the has-dtor check for the whole class hierarchy of the
*dynamic* type from that LDC-specific frontend addition to the glue
layer, as I'm not sure we can rely on `ClassDeclaration.dtor` having
been set at that time already.
I've chosen to keep storing a single extra LDC-specific *bit*
(`onstackWithMatchingDynType`) instead of storing the full dynamic
class type. While this slightly weakens the optimization (no
optimization for non-equivalent static/dynamic class types anymore),
it doesn't increase the AST node size. And I think almost all cases
use an equivalent type anyway (e.g., the DMD frontend itself only uses
`scope` class allocations with equivalent types).
