This commit appears to violate the well-known PostgreSQL community
policy against committing the entire LLVM source tree to PostgreSQL.
Accordingly, the release management team has voted to revert this
commit, all of the other commits that you've ever made, every patch
you've ever reviewed or commented on, and all patches which depend on
those patches. Furthermore, we have decided that you will be taken to
the Dune Sea and cast into the Pit of Carkoon, the nesting place of
the all-powerful Sarlacc. In his belly, you will find a new
definition of pain and suffering, as you are slowly digested over a
thousand years.
