[llvm-branch-commits] [clang] [KeyInstr][Clang] Do stmt atom (PR #134644)

[Orlando Cazalet-Hyams via llvm-branch-commits]

https://github.com/OCHyams created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/134644

See test comment for possible future improvement.

This patch is part of a stack that teaches Clang to generate Key Instructions
metadata for C and C++.

The Key Instructions project is introduced, including a "quick summary" section
at the top which adds context for this PR, here:
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-improving-is-stmt-placement-for-better-interactive-debugging/82668

The feature is only functional in LLVM if LLVM is built with CMake flag
LLVM_EXPERIMENTAL_KEY_INSTRUCTIONs. Eventually that flag will be removed.

The Clang-side work is demoed here:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/130943
