[flang][fir] fix ABI bug 116844 (#118121)

Fix issue #116844.

The issue came from a look-up on the func.func for the sret attribute
when lowering fir.call with character arguments. This was broken because
the func.func may or may not have been rewritten when dealing with the
fir.call, but the lookup assumed it had not been rewritten yet. If the
func.func was rewritten and the result moved to a sret argument, the
call was lowered as if the character was meant to be the result, leading
to bad call code and an assert.

It turns out that the whole logic is actually useless since fir.boxchar
are never lowered as sret arguments, instead, lowering directly breaks
the character result into the first two `fir.ref<>, i64` arguments. So,
the sret case was actually never used, except in this bug.

Hence, instead of fixing the logic (probably by looking for argument
attributes on the call itself), just remove this logic that brings
unnecessary complexity.

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.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM
