tblgen will complain if a sign-extended constant does not fit into a
data type smaller than i32, e.g., i16. This causes a problem when certain
hex constants are used, such as 0xff for byte masks or immediate xor
values.
tblgen will try the sign-extended value first and, if the sign extended
value would overflow, it tries to see if the unsigned value will fit.
Consequently, a software developer can now safely incant:
(XORHIr16 R16C:$rA, 0xffff)
which is somewhat clearer and more informative than incanting:
(XORHIr16 R16C:$rA, (i16 -1))
even if the two are bitwise equivalent.
Tblgen also outputs the 64-bit unsigned constant in the generated ISel code
when getTargetConstant() is invoked.

utostr. To keep the efficiency in the 32-bit case, make it check to see if
the value is 32-bits and if so switch over to the faster 32-bit case.

Minor tweaks in public headers and a few .cpp files so that LLVM can build
successfully with -pedantic and projects using LLVM with -pedantic don't
get warnings from LLVM. There's still more -pedantic warnings to fix.

Move include/Config and include/Support into include/llvm/Config,
include/llvm/ADT and include/llvm/Support. From here on out, all LLVM
public header files must be under include/llvm/.
