TableGen backends
=================
Until we get a step-by-step HowTo for writing TableGen backends, you can at
least grab the boilerplate (build system, new files, etc.) from Clang's
r173931.
TODO: How they work, how to write one. This section should not contain details
about any particular backend, except maybe ``-print-enums`` as an example. This
should highlight the APIs in ``TableGen/Record.h``.
