[llvm-dev] Add support for D programming language demangler

[Luís Ferreira via llvm-dev]

Dear LLVM Development Team,

I'm writing to the mailing list to discuss the introduction of a new
proposed demangler for D programming language. This introduction is
quite big and majorly ported from GCC libiberty codebase. To give some
context, the implementation was written by Iain Buclaw, the maintainer
of GDC (GCC-based D compiler) and I'm in contact with him and Mathias,
who is guiding me as a mentor on the SAOC (Symmetry Autumn of Code).

As requested by James Henderson, I'm CC'ing Tanya Lattner for extra
guidance for the right direction to push this forward.

The first patch is https://reviews.llvm.org/D110576, which was split
into several small patches:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D111414
https://reviews.llvm.org/D111415

Please read the first patch for more context and suggested procedures
proposed by James Henderson and David Blaikie.
