Implement function attribute artificial

Added support in clang for GCC function attribute 'artificial'. This attribute
is used to control stepping behavior of debugger with respect to inline
functions.

+The ``artificial`` attribute is used with inline functions to treat the inline
+function as a unit while debugging. For more information see GCC_ documentation.

I find this to be hard to understand. What does "treat the inline function as a unit" actually mean? How about something like:

The ``artificial`` attribute can be applied to an inline function. If such a function is inlined, the attribute indicates that debuggers should associate the resulting instructions with the call site, rather than with the corresponding line within the inlined callee.

If you still want to reference the GCC documentation, could you pick a newer version? :)
