Changes in directory llvm/include/llvm/Assembly:

AutoUpgrade.h updated: 1.2 -> 1.3
---
Log message:

1. Documentation upgrade.
2. Have UpgradeInstrinicCall return an Instruction* instead of a CallInst* 
   and return the needed CastInst* if the result of the upgraded call needs
   to be casted back to a signed type.
