        <pre>`MDLocation` is a first-class IR type that has two other representations:
`DILocation` (which now trivially wraps `MDLocation` instead of `MDNode`) and
`DebugLoc`.  More details in the LLVMdev post [1].

Aside from adding `MDLocation` itself, this PR includes adding general IR
support for non-MDNode metadata.  In particular, a number of APIs expect only
`MDNode` instances.  This affects metadata APIs such as
`Instruction::getMetadata()` and `NamedMDNode::getOperand()`, which need to use
`Value` instead of `MDNode`.</pre>
