[PATCH] D85191: [AST] Get field size in chars rather than bits in RecordLayoutBuilder.

[Eli Friedman via Phabricator via cfe-commits]

efriedma added a comment.

> If the intent is for getTypeInfo to always return sizes that are multiples of the char size, then the design should be inverted and getTypeInfo should simply be calling getTypeInfoInChars and multiply that result by the char size. But that isn't how it works.

The reason it doesn't work this way is just that someone made the wrong choice a decade ago, and nobody has spent the time to rewrite it since.  Patch welcome.
