The test migration to opaque pointers has finished, so we can finally drop typed pointer support from LLVM \o/

This removes the ability to disable typed pointers, as well as the `-opaque-pointers` option, but otherwise doesn't yet touch any API surface. I'll leave deprecation/removal of compatibility APIs to future changes.

Note that this will break some tests in the experimental SPIRV backend, because the maintainers have failed to update their tests in a reasonable time-frame, despite multiple warnings. In accordance with our experimental target policy, this is not a blocking concern. This issue is tracked at https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/60133.
