Go through and expand the members of bases into the encoding string (and encode the VTable as well).
Unlike gcc which expands virtual bases as many times as they appear in the
hierarchy, clang will only expand them once at the end, to reflect the actual layout.

Note that there doesn't seem to be a way to indicate in the encoding that
packing/alignment of members is different that normal, in which case
the encoding will be out-of-sync with the real layout.
If the runtime switches to just consider the size of types without
taking into account alignment, we could easily make padding explicit in the
encoding (e.g. using arrays of chars). The encoding strings would be
longer then though.

Also encode a flexible array member as array of 0 size, like gcc, not as a pointer.

Welcome to Clang.  This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages
(C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM
compiler infrastructure project.

Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things
beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of
different source level tools.  One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.

If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read
the relevant web sites.  Here are some pointers:
