f353d86deb3ea8299f37c5477dcbb9ea30558fb1 [Builtins] Overload __builtin_operator_new/delete to allow forwarding to usual allocation/deallocation functions.
Summary:
Libc++'s default allocator uses `__builtin_operator_new` and `__builtin_operator_delete` in order to allow the calls to new/delete to be ellided. However, libc++ now needs to support over-aligned types in the default allocator. In order to support this without disabling the existing optimization Clang needs to support calling the aligned new overloads from the builtins.
See llvm.org/PR22634 for more information about the libc++ bug.
This patch changes `__builtin_operator_new`/`__builtin_operator_delete` to call any usual `operator new`/`operator delete` function. It does this by performing overload resolution with the arguments passed to the builtin to determine which allocation function to call. If the selected function is not a usual allocation function a diagnostic is issued.
One open issue is if the `align_val_t` overloads should be considered "usual" when `LangOpts::AlignedAllocation` is disabled.
In order to allow libc++ to detect this new behavior the value for `__has_builtin(__builtin_operator_new)` has been updated to `201802`.
