[BitmaskEnum] Add support for shift operators. (#118007)
For enums that describe a bitmask where successive bits within that mask
describe some enum value (as described in the same enum), it is useful
to support operator<< and operator>> as well.
For example:
```
enum class E : unsigned {
// 2 bits per option
OptionA = 0,
OptionB = 1,
OptionC = 2,
OptionD = 3,
OptionMask = 3,
// Given 3 values in the bitmask X, Y and Z, each is 2 bits in size
// and represents a choice of OptionA..OptionD.
ShiftX = 0,
ShiftY = 2,
ShiftZ = 4,
};
// The mask can be encoded with:
E mask;
mask |= getOptionFor(X) << E::ShiftX;
mask |= getOptionFor(Y) << E::ShiftY;
mask |= getOptionFor(Z) << E::ShiftZ;
// And to extract a value:
E OptionForX = (mask >> E::ShiftX) & E::OptionMask;
E OptionForY = (mask >> E::ShiftY) & E::OptionMask;
E OptionForZ = (mask >> E::ShiftZ) & E::OptionMask;
```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.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
