This is the second step after D67871 to make use of abstract call sites.
In this patch the argument we associate with a abstract call site
argument can be the one in the callback callee instead of the one in the
callback broker.
Caveat: We cannot allow no-alias arguments for problematic callbacks:
As described in [1], adding no-alias (or restrict) to arguments could
break synchronization as the synchronization effect, e.g., a barrier,
does not "alias" with the pointer anymore. This disables no-alias
annotation for potentially problematic arguments until we implement the
fix described in [1].

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

An abstract call site is a wrapper that allows to treat direct,
indirect, and callback calls the same. If an abstract call site
represents a direct or indirect call site it behaves like a stripped
down version of a normal call site object. The abstract call site can
also represent a callback call, thus the fact that the initially
called function (=broker) may invoke a third one (=callback callee).
In this case, the abstract call side hides the middle man, hence the
broker function. The result is a representation of the callback call,
inside the broker, but in the context of the original instruction that
invoked the broker.
Again, there are up to three functions involved when we talk about
callback call sites. The caller (1), which invokes the broker
function. The broker function (2), that may or may not invoke the
callback callee. And finally the callback callee (3), which is the
target of the callback call.
The abstract call site will handle the mapping from parameters to
arguments depending on the semantic of the broker function. However,
it is important to note that the mapping is often partial. Thus, some
arguments of the call/invoke instruction are mapped to parameters of
the callee while others are not. At the same time, arguments of the
callback callee might be unknown, thus "null" if queried.
This patch introduces also !callback metadata which describe how a
callback broker maps from parameters to arguments. This metadata is
directly created by clang for known broker functions, provided through
source code attributes by the user, or later deduced by analyses.
