llvmjit: Use explicit LLVMContextRef for inlining

Browse Source 
When performing inlining LLVM unfortunately "leaks" types (the
types survive and are usable, but a new round of inlining will
recreate new structurally equivalent types). This accumulation
will over time amount to a memory leak which for some queries
can be large enough to trigger the OOM process killer.

To avoid accumulation of types, all IR related data is stored
in an LLVMContextRef which is dropped and recreated in order
to release all types.  Dropping and recreating incurs overhead,
so it will be done only after 100 queries. This is a heuristic
which might be revisited, but until we can get the size of the
context from LLVM we are flying a bit blind.

This issue has been reported several times, there may be more
references to it in the archives on top of the threads linked
below.

This is a backpatch of 9dce22033d to all supported branches.
