The target backend can support data-in-code load commands even when
the assembler doesn't, or vice-versa. Allow targets to opt-in for
direct-to-object.

When a BL/BLX references a symbol in the same translation unit that is
out of range, use an external relocation. The linker will use this to
generate a branch island rather than a direct reference, allowing the
relocation to resolve correctly.

This patch fixes load/store instructions to handle less common cases
like "asr #32", "rrx" properly throughout the MC layer.

The expression based expansion too often results in IR level optimizations
splitting the intermediate values into separate basic blocks, preventing
the formation of the VBSL instruction as the code author intended. In
particular, LICM would often hoist part of the computation out of a loop.

aligned address. Based on patch by David Peixotto.
Also use vld1.64 / vst1.64 with 128-bit alignment to take advantage of alignment
hints. rdar://12090772, rdar://12238782

This models the A9 processor at the level of instruction operands, as
opposed to the itinerary, which models each operation at the level of
pipeline stages.
The two primary motivations are:
1) Allow MachineScheduler to model A9 as an out-of-order processor. It
can now distinguish between hazards that force interlocking vs.
buffered resources.
2) Reduce long-term maintenance by allowing the itinerary and target
hooks to eventually be removed. Note that almost all of the complexity
in the new model exists to model instruction variants, which the
itinerary cannot handle. Instead the scheduler previously relied on
processor-specific target hooks which are incomplete and buggy.

* wrap code blocks in \code ... \endcode;
* refer to parameter names in paragraphs correctly (\arg is not what most
people want -- it starts a new paragraph);
* use \param instead of \arg to document parameters in order to be consistent
with the rest of the codebase.

The ARM backend can eliminate cmp instructions by reusing flags from a
nearby sub instruction with similar arguments.
Don't do that if the sub is predicated - the flags are not written
unconditionally.

- Darwin lied about not supporting .lcomm and turned it into zerofill in the
asm parser. Push the zerofill-conversion down into macho-specific code.
- This makes the tri-state LCOMMType enum superfluous, there are no targets
without .lcomm.
- Do proper error reporting when trying to use .lcomm with alignment on a target
that doesn't support it.
- .comm and .lcomm alignment was parsed in bytes on COFF, should be power of 2.
- Fixes PR13755 (.lcomm crashes on ELF).

If we have a BUILD_VECTOR that is mostly a constant splat, it is often better to splat that constant then insertelement the non-constant lanes instead of insertelementing every lane from an undef base.
