The theory is it's still faster than a pair of movq / a quad of movl. This
will probably hurt older chips like P4 but should run faster on current
and future Intel processors. rdar://8817010

x86-32: 32-bit calls were named "call" not "calll". 64-bit calls were correctly
named "callq", so this only impacted x86-32.
This fixes rdar://8456370 - llvm-mc rejects 'calll'
This also exposes that mingw/64 is generating a 32-bit call instead of a 64-bit call,
I will file a bugzilla.

alignment of globals with a specified alignment, we fix
common variables to obey their alignment. Add a comment
explaining why this behavior is important.

1. Makes it possible to lower with floating point loads and stores.
2. Avoid unaligned loads / stores unless it's fast.
3. Fix some memcpy lowering logic bug related to when to optimize a
load from constant string into a constant.
4. Adjust x86 memcpy lowering threshold to make it more sane.
5. Fix x86 target hook so it uses vector and floating point memory
ops more effectively.
