[IR/DIVar] Add the flag for params that have unmodified value
Introduce the debug info flag that indicates that a parameter has unchanged value throughout a function. This info will be used to emit the expressions with DW_OP_entry_value. ([4/13] Introduce the debug entry values.)

+These flags encode various properties of DINodes.
+
+The `ArgumentNotModified` flag marks a function argument whose value
+is not modified throughout of a function. This flag is used to decide
+whether a DW_OP_entry_value can be used in a location description
+after the function prologue. The language frontend is expected to compute
+this property for each DILocalVariable. The flag should be used
+only in optimized code.
