[PATCH] Add return value attribute to C interface

[Reid Kleckner]

I'm not excited to add new APIs that use LLVMAttribute.  See this comment
from the end of the enum in Core.h:
    /* FIXME: These attributes are currently not included in the C API as
       a temporary measure until the API/ABI impact to the C API is
understood
       and the path forward agreed upon.
    LLVMAddressSafety = 1ULL << 32,
    LLVMStackProtectStrongAttribute = 1ULL<<33,
    LLVMCold = 1ULL << 34,
    LLVMOptimizeNone = 1ULL << 35,
    LLVMInAllocaAttribute = 1ULL << 36,
    LLVMNonNullAttribute = 1ULL << 37,
    LLVMJumpTableAttribute = 1ULL << 38,
    */

We haven't addressed this for over a year.

If you're interested in fleshing out the C API attribute support, do you
mind proposing something that solves this problem?
