llvm9
This adds llvm9, strips down llvm8 to a minimum (and updates it to 8.0.1), and bumps a bunch of other packages that should be bumped.

Platform testing:

- [ ] x86_64 **[need help]**
- [ ] x86_64-musl **[need help]**
- [ ] i686 **[need help]**
- [x] ppc64le
- [x] ppc64le-musl
- [x] ppc64
- [x] ppc64-musl
- [x] ppc
- [x] ppc-musl
- [ ] aarch64
- [ ] aarch64-musl
- [ ] armv7l **[need help]**
- [ ] armv6l **[need help]**
- [ ] armv7l-musl **[need help]**

To bump + test:

- [x] llvm
- [x] libcxxabi
- [x] libcxx
- [x] llvm-libunwind
- [x] libGL
- [ ] beignet **[need help, x86 only]**
- [x] libclc-git
- [x] juCi++
- [x] kdevelop
- [x] rtags

- [x] shiboken2
- [x] codelite
- [x] gnome-builder
- [x] bpftrace
- [x] qtcreator

rebuild but not bump (no target llvm/clang dependency):

- [x] ardour
- [ ]  afl **[need help, x86 only]**
- [x]  blender
- [x]  firefox
- [ ]  firefox-esr
- [ ]  icecat
- [ ]  thunderbird

- [x] godot
- [ ] ispc **[need help, x86 only]**
- [x] yosys

Rust will need to be bumped but we'll do that as a part of the upcoming Rust update to avoid building twice.
