[llvm] Match llvm.type.checked.load.relative semantics to llvm.load.r… (#129583)

…elative

The semantics of `llvm.type.checked.load.relative` seem to be a little
different from that of `llvm.load.relative`. It looks like the semantics
for `llvm.type.checked.load.relative` is `ptr + offset + *(ptr +
offset)` whereas the semantics for `llvm.load.relative` is `ptr + *(ptr
+ offset)`. That is, the offset for the former is added to the offset
address whereas the later has the offset added to the original pointer.

It really feels like the checked intrinsic was meant to match the
semantics of the non-checked intrinsic, but I think for all cases the
checked intrinsic is used (swift being the only use I know of), the
calculation just happens to be the same because swift always uses an
offset of zero. Likewise, all llvm tests for this intrinsic happen to
use an offset of zero.

Relative vtables in clang happens to be the first time where we're using
this intrinsic and using it with non-zero values. This updates the
semantics of the checked intrinsic to match the non-checked one.
Effectively this shouldn't change any codegen by any users of this since
all current users seem to use a zero offset.

This PR also updates some tests with non-zero offsets.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
