Migrating latest code.

Migrating latest code from the original code base, including bug fixes and parser for Metadata

The challenge is that this repo is splitted as subtree and the code structure in the original code base may have changed. Perhaps we need to create a new subtree from current master of tsmart and manually cherry pick patches for this repo.

How about use CodeGen to release this llvm cpp binding?
(by the way llvm 3.4 is a too old version

Thanks for your advice! Can you point out the link to CodeGen so that I can take a look? The master branch is using LLVM 3.9.0 since our IR analysis tool depends on that version, perhaps I can create a dev branch for binding to lastest LLVM release

Just like the library used in this repo, javacpp-presets' llvm c api binding was generated by javacpp. (it translate cpp to java binding with annotations.
