[cfe-dev] Objective-C patches

[David Chisnall]

As a result of off-list comments, I have fixed a number of 'if('  
formatting issues and a couple of line-wrap problems, typedef'd  
llvm::SmallVector<llvm::Constant*, 16> to ConstantVector, and removed  
the StructGEP helper function which is left over from before that  
functionality was added to IRBuilder.  I don't want to spam everyone,  
so I'll hold off sending an updated patch until I've received more  
comments.
