Objective-C metadata types which should be marked as "weak", but which the
linker will remove upon final linkage. However, this linkage isn't specific to
Objective-C.
For example, the "objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc" symbol is defined like this:
.globl l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.weak_definition l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.section __DATA, __objc_msgrefs, coalesced
.align 3
l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc:
.quad _objc_msgSend_fixup
.quad L_OBJC_METH_VAR_NAME_1
This is different from the "linker_private" linkage type, because it can't have
the metadata defined with ".weak_definition".
Currently only supported on Darwin platforms.

"asm printering" happens through MCStreamer. This also
Streamerizes PIC16 debug info, which escaped my attention.
This removes a leak from LLVMTargetMachine of the 'legacy'
output stream.

and passing off ownership to AsmPrinter. Now MachineModuleInfo
creates it and owns it by value. This allows us to use MCSymbols
more consistently throughout the rest of the code generator, and
simplifies a bit of code. This also allows MachineFunction to
keep an MCContext reference handy, and cleans up the TargetRegistry
interfaces for AsmPrinters.

the end of the instruction instead of expecting the caller to
do it. This currently causes the asm-verbose instruction
comments to be on the next line.

Move the X86 implementation of function body emission up to
AsmPrinter::EmitFunctionBody, which works by calling the virtual
EmitInstruction method.

Modules and ModuleProviders. Because the "ModuleProvider" simply materializes
GlobalValues now, and doesn't provide modules, it's renamed to
"GVMaterializer". Code that used to need a ModuleProvider to materialize
Functions can now materialize the Functions directly. Functions no longer use a
magic linkage to record that they're materializable; they simply ask the
GVMaterializer.
Because the C ABI must never change, we can't remove LLVMModuleProviderRef or
the functions that refer to it. Instead, because Module now exposes the same
functionality ModuleProvider used to, we store a Module* in any
LLVMModuleProviderRef and translate in the wrapper methods. The bindings to
other languages still use the ModuleProvider concept. It would probably be
worth some time to update them to follow the C++ more closely, but I don't
intend to do it.

Default HasSetDirective to true, since most targets have it.
The targets that claim to not have it probably do, or it is
spelled differently. These include Blackfin, Mips, Alpha, and
PIC16. All of these except pic16 are normal ELF targets, so
they almost certainly have it.

missing ones are libsupport, libsystem and libvmcore. libvmcore is
currently blocked on bugpoint, which uses EH. Once it stops using
EH, we can switch it off.
This #if 0's out 3 unit tests, because gtest requires RTTI information.
Suggestions welcome on how to fix this.

doing global variable classification anymore) and hookized, sink almost
all target targets global variable emission code into AsmPrinter and out
of each target.
Some notes:
1. PIC16 does completely custom and crazy stuff, so it is not changed.
2. XCore has some custom handling for extra directives. I'll look at it next.
3. This switches linux/ppc to use .globl instead of .global. If .globl is
actually wrong, let me know and I'll fix it.
4. This makes linux/ppc get a lot of random cases right which were obviously
wrong before, it is probably now a bit healthier.
5. Blackfin will probably start getting .comm and other things that it didn't
before. If this is undesirable, it should explicitly opt out of these
things by clearing the relevant fields of MCAsmInfo.

verbose-asm mode, print comments instead. This eliminates a non-comment
difference between verbose-asm mode and non-verbose-asm mode.
Also, factor out the relevant code out of all the targets and into
target-independent code.
