Introduce debuginfo to statements in MIR
The PR introduces support for debug information within dead statements. Currently, only the reference statement is supported, which is sufficient to fix#128081.
I don't modify Stable MIR, as I don't think we need debug information when using it.
This PR represents the debug information for the dead reference statement via `#dbg_value`. For example, `let _foo_b = &foo.b` becomes `#dbg_value(ptr %foo, !22, !DIExpression(DW_OP_plus_uconst, 4, DW_OP_stack_value), !26)`. You can see this here: https://rust.godbolt.org/z/d43js6adv.
The general principle for handling debug information is to never provide less debug information than the optimized LLVM IR.
The current rules for dropping debug information in this PR are:
- If the LLVM IR cannot represent a reference address, it's replaced with poison or simply dropped. For example, see: https://rust.godbolt.org/z/shGqPec8W. I'm using poison in all such cases now.
- All debuginfos is dropped when merging multiple successor BBs. An example is available here: https://rust.godbolt.org/z/TE1q3Wq6M.
I doesn't drop debuginfos in `MatchBranchSimplification`, because LLVM also pick one branch for it.
