Opaque pointers #382

Description

@gavrilikhin-d

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
LLVM is moving towards opaque pointers. In LLVM 16 non-opaque pointers are forbidden. It's probably worth to start implementing optional support for them now.

Describe the solution you'd like
Add new type OpaquePointerType

Describe possible drawbacks to your solution
None, except more work. Opaque pointers are inevitable

Describe alternatives you've considered
Add Context::use_opaque_pointers function, as LLVM did.
