[LLVMdev] Extend named metadata support in the LLVM C API

[Andrew Wilkins]

Hi folks,

I'm working on an LLVM-based Go compiler as a hobby project. I'm using Go
bindings to the LLVM C API, and have found that the latter does not have
full support for named metadata, which means I can't (easily/sensibly)
export debug information. Namely, you can't create or update named
metadata. I sent a patch to the llvm-commits list last weekend, but haven't
had any feedback yet. I think it may have just slipped under the radar,
hence the cross-posting.

If someone could take a look and let me know if this is acceptable, I'll be
very grateful. The original message is here:
