Module::getOrInsertFunction is using C-style vararg instead of
variadic templates.
From a user prospective, it forces the use of an annoying nullptr
to mark the end of the vararg, and there's not type checking on the
arguments. The variadic template is an obvious solution to both
issues.

As discussed in https://reviews.llvm.org/D22666, our current mechanism to
support -pg profiling, where we insert calls to mcount(), or some similar
function, is fundamentally broken. We insert these calls in the frontend, which
means they get duplicated when inlining, and so the accumulated execution
counts for the inlined-into functions are wrong.
Because we don't want the presence of these functions to affect optimizaton,
they should be inserted in the backend. Here's a pass which would do just that.
The knowledge of the name of the counting function lives in the frontend, so
we're passing it here as a function attribute. Clang will be updated to use
this mechanism.
