Resolving merge conflicts that will arise in the meantime is not going to be trivial, but should be doable in a reasonable time. So I'm willing to wait.

I don't mind either way, as long as we don't inserting a couple of private members in the middle of public section.

Checking on Linux, `sizeof(Sema)` is 18824 bytes at moment. This patch increases that by 24 bytes, to `18848`. I don't deem it significant enough to care for an object this big, but I can claw it back if this is considered important.

If there was an intent to put some data members first to improve cache hits, I think it has been lost by this point. Our first non-static data members are `OpenCLOptions OpenCLFeatures` and `FPOptions CurFPFeatures` at the moment. Since this patch puts generic Sema stuff (`Sema.cpp`) first, opportunity to put widely used data members first is still there. As I mentioned in the description, follow-up patches that improve ordering in each particular section are expected.
