This to protect against non-sensical instruction sequences being assembled,
which would either cause asserts/crashes further down, or a Wasm module being output that doesn't validate.
Unlike a validator, this type checker is able to give type-errors as part of the parsing process, which makes the assembler much friendlier to be used by humans writing manual input.
Because the MC system is single pass (instructions aren't even stored in MC format, they are directly output) the type checker has to be single pass as well, which means that from now on .globaltype and .functype decls must come before their use. An extra pass is added to Codegen to collect information for this purpose, since AsmPrinter is normally single pass / streaming as well, and would otherwise generate this information on the fly.
A `-no-type-check` flag was added to llvm-mc (and any other tools that take asm input) that surpresses type errors, as a quick escape hatch for tests that were not intended to be type correct.
This is a first version of the type checker that ignores control flow, i.e. it checks that types are correct along the linear path, but not the branch path. This will still catch most errors. Branch checking could be added in the future.

This patch renames the "Initial" member of WasmLimits to the name used
in the spec, "Minimum".
In the core WebAssembly specification, the Limits data type has one
required "min" member and one optional "max" member, indicating the
minimum required size of the corresponding table or memory, and the
maximum size, if any.
Although the WebAssembly spec does instantiate locally-defined tables
and memories with the initial size being equal to the minimum size, it
can't impose such a requirement for imports. It doesn't make sense to
require an initial size for a memory import, for example. The compiler
can only sensibly express the minimum and maximum sizes.
See
https://github.com/WebAssembly/js-types/blob/master/proposals/js-types/Overview.md#naming-of-size-limits
for a related discussion that agrees that the right name of "initial" is
"minimum" when querying the type of a table or memory from JavaScript.
(Of course it still makes sense for JS to speak in terms of an initial
size when it explicitly instantiates memories and tables.)

Now that the WebAssembly SIMD specification is finalized and engines are
generally up-to-date, there is no need for a separate target feature for gating
SIMD instructions that engines have not implemented. With this change,
v128.const is now enabled by default with the simd128 target feature.

The indirect function table, synthesized by the linker, is needed if and
only if there are TABLE_INDEX relocs.

When we produce an YAML output, we also print leading zeroes currently.
An output might look like this:
```
- Name: .dynsym
Type: SHT_DYNSYM
Address: 0x0000000000001000
EntSize: 0x0000000000000018
```
There are probably no reason to print leading zeroes.
It just makes harder to read values. This patch stops printing them.
The output becomes like:
```
- Name: .dynsym
Type: SHT_DYNSYM
Address: 0x1000
EntSize: 0x18
```
This affects obj2yaml mostly, but also dsymutil and llvm-xray tools output.

Adds more testing in basic-assembly.s and a new test tables.s.
Adds support to yaml reading and writing of tables as well.

This adds 4 new reloc types.
A lot of code that previously assumed any memory or offset values could be contained in a uint32_t (and often truncated results from functions returning 64-bit values) have been upgraded to uint64_t. This is not comprehensive: it is only the values that come in contact with the new relocation values and their dependents.
A new tablegen mapping was added to automatically upgrade loads/stores in the assembler, which otherwise has no way to select for these instructions (since they are indentical other than for the offset immediate). It follows a similar technique to https://reviews.llvm.org/D53307

This is just a first step, adding the new instruction variants while keeping the existing 32-bit functionality working.
Some of the basic load/store tests have new wasm64 versions that show that the basics of the target are working.
Further features need implementation, but these will be added in followups to keep things reviewable.
