NIR metadata validation verifies that the debug bit was unset (by a call
to nir_metadata_preserve) if a NIR optimization pass made progress on
the shader. With the expectation that the NIR shader consists of only a
single main function, it has been safe to call nir_metadata_preserve()
iff progress was made.
However, most optimization passes calculate progress per-function and
then return the union of those calculations. In the case that an
optimization pass makes progress only on a subset of the functions in
the shader metadata validation will detect the debug bit is still set on
any unchanged functions resulting in a failed assertion.
This patch offers a quick solution (short of a larger scale refactoring
which I do not wish to undertake as part of this series) that simply
unsets the debug bit on unchanged functions.

the naming is a bit confusing no matter how you look at it. Within SPIR-V
"global" memory is memory accessible from all threads. glsl "global" memory
normally refers to shader thread private memory declared at global scope. As
we already use "shared" for memory shared across all thrads of a work group
the solution where everybody could be happy with is to rename "global" to
"private" and use "global" later for memory usually stored within system
accessible memory (be it VRAM or system RAM if keeping SVM in mind).
glsl "local" memory is memory only accessible within a function, while SPIR-V
"local" memory is memory accessible within the same workgroup.
v2: rename local to function as well
v3: rename vtn_variable_mode_local as well

We're going to want to do more deref optimizations going forward and
this gives us a central place to do them. Also, cast propagation will
get a bit more complicated with the addition of ptr_as_array derefs.

This has thrown a few people off recently and it's good to have the
process and all the rational for it documented somewhere. A comment at
the top of nir_inline_functions seems as good a place as any.

This commit completely reworks function calls in NIR. Instead of having
a set of variables for the parameters and return value, nir_call_instr
now has simply has a number of sources which get mapped to load_param
intrinsics inside the functions. It's up to the client API to build an
ABI on top of that. In SPIR-V, out parameters are handled by passing
the result of a deref through as an SSA value and storing to it.
This virtue of this approach can be seen by how much it allows us to
delete from core NIR. In particular, nir_inline_functions gets halved
and goes from a fairly difficult pass to understand in detail to almost
trivial. It also simplifies spirv_to_nir somewhat because NIR functions
never were a good fit for SPIR-V.
Unfortunately, there is no good way to do this without a mega-commit.
Core NIR and SPIR-V have to be changed at the same time. This also
requires changes to anv and radv because nir_inline_functions couldn't
handle deref instructions before this change and can't work without them
after this change.

We rename it to nir_deref_clone, re-order the sources to match the other
clone functions, and expose nir_deref_var_clone. This past part, in
particular, lets us get rid of quite a few lines since we no longer have
to call nir_copy_deref and wrap it in deref_as_var.

Constant initializers have been a constant (ha!) pain for quite some time.
While they're useful from a language perspective, people writing passes or
backends really don't want deal with them most of the time. This commit
removes most of the constant initializer support from NIR. It is expected
that you call nir_lower_constant_initializers VERY EARLY to ensure that
they're gone before you do anything interesting.

use the archaic block version for everything.
