Add a pass_by_reference flag to function_arg_info

This patch adds a flag that tells targets whether an argument
has been converted to pass-by-reference form.  This replaces
assign_parm_data_one::passed_pointer in function.c.

The flag is set automatically for places that call
apply_pass_by_reference_rules.  Places that apply
pass-by-reference manually need to set it themselves.

(After previous changes, no targets apply pass-by-reference
manually.  They all go through apply_pass_by_reference_rules.)

when applying pass-by-reference semantics.
(initialize_argument_information): Likewise.
(emit_library_call_value_1): Likewise.
* function.c (assign_parm_data_one): Remove passed_pointer field.
