Microsoft PE/COFF Spec clearly states that the field is of signed interger
type. However, in reality, it's unsigned. If cl.exe needs to create a large
number of sections for COMDAT sections, it will just create more than 32768
sections. Handling large section number as negative number is not correct.
I think this is a spec bug.

This changes the implementation of local directional labels to use a dedicated
map. With that it can then just use CreateTempSymbol, which is what the rest
of MC uses.
CreateTempSymbol doesn't do a great job at making sure the names are unique
(or being efficient when the names are not needed), but that should probably
be fixed in a followup patch.
This fixes pr18928.

VSX is an ISA extension supported on the POWER7 and later cores that enhances
floating-point vector and scalar capabilities. Among other things, this adds
<2 x double> support and generally helps to reduce register pressure.
The interesting part of this ISA feature is the register configuration: there
are 64 new 128-bit vector registers, the 32 of which are super-registers of the
existing 32 scalar floating-point registers, and the second 32 of which overlap
with the 32 Altivec vector registers. This makes things like vector insertion
and extraction tricky: this can be free but only if we force a restriction to
the right register subclass when needed. A new "minipass" PPCVSXCopy takes care
of this (although it could do a more-optimal job of it; see the comment about
unnecessary copies below).
Please note that, currently, VSX is not enabled by default when targeting
anything because it is not yet ready for that. The assembler and disassembler
are fully implemented and tested. However:
- CodeGen support causes miscompiles; test-suite runtime failures:
MultiSource/Benchmarks/FreeBench/distray/distray
MultiSource/Benchmarks/McCat/08-main/main
MultiSource/Benchmarks/Olden/voronoi/voronoi
MultiSource/Benchmarks/mafft/pairlocalalign
MultiSource/Benchmarks/tramp3d-v4/tramp3d-v4
SingleSource/Benchmarks/CoyoteBench/almabench
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/matmul_f64_4x4
- The lowering currently falls back to using Altivec instructions far more
than it should. Worse, there are some things that are scalarized through the
stack that shouldn't be.
- A lot of unnecessary copies make it past the optimizers, and this needs to
be fixed.
- Many more regression tests are needed.
Normally, I'd fix these things prior to committing, but there are some
students and other contributors who would like to work this, and so it makes
sense to move this development process upstream where it can be subject to the
regular code-review procedures.

Support to the IAS was added to actually parse and handle the complex SO
expressions. However, the object file lowering was not updated to compensate
for the fact that the shift operand may be an absolute expression.
When trying to assemble to an object file, the lowering would fail while
succeeding when emitting purely assembly. Add an appropriate test.
The test case is inspired by the test case provided by Jiangning Liu who also
brought the issue to light.

This fixes invalid lengths in .debug_aranges on big-endian mips64
(lengths appear to be left-shifted by 32 bits) and in .debug_loc.
