This PR replaces two existing LLVMRust bindings with equivalent calls to the LLVM-C API.

For LLVMGetTypeKind, we avoid the UB hazard by declaring the foreign function to return RawEnum<TypeKind> (which is a wrapper around u32), and then perform checked conversion from u32 to TypeKind.

cc @WaffleLapkin in case there was some specific reason for the custom LLVMRustSetTailCallKind binding that I didn't think of (though I suspect the LLVM-C function just didn't exist when it was originally written).

cg_llvm: Use LLVM-C bindings for `LLVMSetTailCallKind`, `LLVMGetTypeKind`

This PR replaces two existing `LLVMRust` bindings with equivalent calls to the LLVM-C API.

For `LLVMGetTypeKind`, we avoid the UB hazard by declaring the foreign function to return `RawEnum<TypeKind>` (which is a wrapper around `u32`), and then perform checked conversion from `u32` to `TypeKind`.
