This is used to implement C99 "inline"/GNU89 "extern inline" ie. an
entity which is externally defined but where we know an inlineable
definition anyway.

This commit removes the strange differentiation between
ir_visibility_external and ir_visibility_default. We now only have
ir_visibility_external for all symbols visible across compilation units.
You may or may not attach graphs/initializers to them.

This adds support for C99/gcc style compound types where the last
element is an array of unspecified size. The compound size is the
minimum size (assuming the array has no elements), or is calculated
by the size of an initializer.

Types "own" entities, so they should also free them when they get freed.

unknown_type, code_type, none_type, unknown_entity reference are hold in
the irprog now. This makes handling more consistent since now all types
and entities are equally part of irprog.

Now every bit in the public API is documented so we can enable doxygen
warnings for undocumented members.

- Put things into logical groups
- Add cross references from node overview to API docu

Make sure all types are in the global type list, remove type_walk_prog
which was a strange alternative to type_walk attempting to not miss
types not in the global list.

Use a special kind of entity on the frame type instead of a value_type
struct inside a method type. This makes replacement of function types
slightly easier (it's still a complex operation though) and handling in
the backend a bit more consistent since it's more or less a normal stack
access (with special offsets).

* get_associated_type is unnecessary
* is_lowered_type is an internal inline function now
* set_lowered_type is an internal inline function now

remove names from parameters of method_types - it is pure debug info and should already be contained in type_dbg_info if available

remove set_.*_member type functions, as you can too easily violate the owner <-> member relationship

[r28120]

All removed functions had no implementation.
