This commit adds a concept to NIR of having a blob of constant data
associated with a shader. Instead of being a UBO or uniform that can be
manipulated by the client, this constant data considered part of the
shader and remains constant across all invocations of the given shader
until the end of time. To access this constant data from the shader, we
add a new load_constant intrinsic. The intention is that drivers will
eventually lower load_constant intrinsics to load_ubo, load_uniform, or
something similar. Constant data will be used by the optimization pass
in the next commit but this concept may also be useful for OpenCL.
v2 (Jason Ekstrand):
- Rename num_constants to constant_data_size (anholt)

These are very similar to the related function in nir_lower_io except
that they don't handle per-vertex or packed things (that could be added,
in theory) and they take a more detailed size/align function pointer.
One day, we should consider switching nir_lower_io over to using the
more detailed size/align functions and then we could make it use these
helpers instead of having its own.

We need to add loop terminators to the list in the order we come
across them otherwise if two or more have the same exit condition
we will select that last one rather than the first one even though
its unreachable.
This fix is for simple unrolls where we only have a single exit
point. When unrolling these type of loops the unreachable
terminators and their unreachable branch are removed prior to
unrolling. Because of the logic change we also switch some
list access in the complex unrolling logic to avoid breakage.

Now that SSA values can be derefs and they have special rules, we have
to be a bit more careful about our LCSSA phis. In particular, we need
to clean up in case LCSSA ended up creating a phi node for a deref.
This fixes validation issues with some Vulkan CTS tests with the new
deref instructions.

Note that this patch needs to come late in the series since this pass
can be run after any pass that damages nir_metadata_loop_analysis.

This deletes support for _var intrinsics and legacy deref chains in
favor of deref instructions. The internals are also reworked a bit to
use deref instructions directly.

This commit reworks nir_lower_vars_to_ssa to use deref instructions and
deref paths internally instead of deref chains. We also drop support

This makes us build the is_direct parameter as the nodes are constructed
rather than as we walk the chain. This will be useful later.

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.

This adds a concept of "members" to a variable with an interface type.
It allows you to specify the full variable data for each member of the
interface instead of once for the variable. We also add a lowering pass
to lower those variables to a sequence of variables and rewrite all the
derefs accordingly.
