Kacper Kołodziej 2445c5e740 MakeSegmentRefPass: emit cstringLiteral
This commit changes MakeSegmentRefPass so that it's now a ModulePass and
it uses the binary to detect integer constants that represent the
address of strings.
When it detects address of constant strings, instead of injecting calls
to SegmentRef, we now inject calls to cstringLiteral, so that we can
later emit them as inline string literals in C.

In segmentRef we use integer type meaning address in memory, so we
generate segmentRef function with non-pointer type. For cstringLiteral
function we need real pointer type of operand.

Save MetaAddress, size, offset and original type for every
cstringLiteral call in metadata as we do for segmentRef calls.

For cstringLiteral "revng.cstring_literal" metadata name is used.

StringLiteralPool needs tuple of address, size, offset and type to
keep distinct string decorator functions for each string. This tuple is
represented by StringLiteralPoolKey struct.

Pipe for MakeSegmentRefPass needs to be defined explicitly, because
additional wrapper passes are required in MakeSegmentRef:

 1. LoadModelWrapperPass
 2. LoadBinaryWrapperPass

MakeSegmentRefPass requires access to RawBinaryView to detect cstring
literals in binary.

Fix printed command in MakeSegmentRefPipe

This printed command might not work. @ale commented it will be replaced
with `revng pipe run-pipe` once we will have it.

Pietro Fezzardi 66434db5f9 Don't use named metadata revng.segment_ref
Using a named metadata is simply wrong, because we need to have many of
these metadata alive at the same time with different values.
Using a named metadata has the unpleasant side effect of making all the
`SegmentRef` functions to refer to the same segment.

Antonio Frighetto d9bc64b29d Introduce MakeSegmentRefPass
A simple pass that scans constant expressions and literals and
replaces them with opaque calls so that they can be easily dealt
with by the Backend, in an attempt of emitting better-looking
decompiled code.
