v6.0.0

LLVM v6.0.0

This is a breaking release, which the major change being a switch from explicit ctx arguments to various API calls, to a global task-bound context that's implicitly set by the Context constructor and removed by the dispose(::Context) function. Practically, this means that you can get rid of all context arguments, and things should generally still work. For more complex uses, see the changes in #358.

Other breaking changes include the rename of called_value to called_operand for consistency with upstream LLVM, and the removal of deprecations from the previous breaking release.
