Andrea Gussoni cf42e497aa Introduce the Function Isolation Pass
This commit introduces the Function Isolation Pass. We use the
information provided by the Function Boundaries Detection Pass to
organize the code that `revamb` places inside the `root` function in
different LLVM functions. To do this we obviously need to introduce some
changes and tricks to handle the execution of the translated program.

The main idea is to have two different realms (one where the isolated
functions live, one in which we have basically the old root function).
We start the execution from the realm of the *non isolated* functions,
and we transfer, as soon as possible, the execution to the *isolated
functions* realm. We then have a fallback mechanism to restore the
execution in the right place in the *non isolated* functions realm, and
so on.

The largest change, besides the re-organization of the code in different
functions, is the use of the exception handling mechanism provided by
the LLVM framework in order to be able to manage the switch between the
two realms.

We also introduce the `support.h` header file, which contains a couple
of definitions used by `support.c` and that need to be shared with some
of the components involved in the translation process. We have defined
some helper functions, directly in C, that we use both for handling the
exception mechanism and for giving extra debug informations when an
exception is raised.

The `revamb-dump` utility now supports the `-i` option to specify the
path were to save the new LLVM module.

The `translate` utility now supports the `-i` option that produces a
binary in which the function isolation has been applied.

We also introduced some tests that apply the function isolation pass to
the `Runtime/` tests already present. In this way we can verify that the
translation and the following function isolation preserve the behavior
of the program.

When serializing the new LLVM module we regenerate the metadata used for
debug purposes, and for doing this, since we not longer have only the
`root` function, we have changed some details in the `DebugHelper` class
in order to be able to emit the metadata for all the functions of our
interest in a single shot.
