Remove non-IR codegen paths (#398)

The basic change is simple: remove support for all code generation paths other than the IR.
There is a lot of vestigial code left, but the main logic in `ast-legalize.*` is gone.

Doing this breaks a *lot* of tests, for various reasons:

- We can no longer guarantee exactly matching DXBC or SPIR-V output after things pass through out IR

- Many builtins don't have matching versions defined for GLSL output via IR (even when they had versions defined via the earlier approach that worked with the AST)

- A lot of code creates intermediate values of opaque types in the IR, which turn into opaque-type temporaries that aren't allowed (this breaks many GLSL tests, but also some HLSL)

I implemented some small fixes for issues that I could get working in the time I had, but most of the above are larger than made sense to fix in this commit.

For now I'm disabling the tests that cause problems, but we will need to make a concerted effort to get things working on this new substrate if we are going to make good on our goals.
