Avoid unnecessary allocas for indirect function arguments

The extra alloca was only necessary because it made LLVM implicitly
handle the necessary deref to get to the actual value. The same happens
for indirect arguments that have the byval attribute. But the Rust ABI
does not use the byval attribute and so we need to manually add the
deref operation to the debuginfo.
