For now this matches the equivalent of (neg (abs ...)), which did hit a few
times in projects/test-suite. We should probably also match cases where
absolute-like selects are used with reversed arguments.

This first cut is pretty conservative. The final argument register (R6)
is call-saved, so we would need to make sure that the R6 argument to a
sibling call is the same as the R6 argument to the calling function,
which seems worth keeping as a separate patch.
Saying that integer truncations are free means that we no longer
use the extending instructions LGF and LLGF for spills in int-conv-09.ll
and int-conv-10.ll. Instead we treat the registers as 64 bits wide and
truncate them to 32-bits where necessary. I think it's unlikely we'd
use LGF and LLGF for spills in other situations for the same reason,
so I'm removing the tests rather than replacing them. The associated
code is generic and applies to many more instructions than just
LGF and LLGF, so there is no corresponding code removal.

Addresses a review comment from Ulrich Weigand. No functional change intended.
I'm not sure whether the old TODO that this patch touches still holds,
but that's something we'd get to when adding a targetted scheduling
description.

Before this change, the SystemZ backend would use BRCL for all branches
and only consider shortening them to BRC when generating an object file.
E.g. a branch on equal would use the JGE alias of BRCL in assembly output,
but might be shortened to the JE alias of BRC in ELF output. This was
a useful first step, but it had two problems:
(1) The z assembler isn't traditionally supposed to perform branch shortening
or branch relaxation. We followed this rule by not relaxing branches
in assembler input, but that meant that generating assembly code and
then assembling it would not produce the same result as going directly
to object code; the former would give long branches everywhere, whereas
the latter would use short branches where possible.
(2) Other useful branches, like COMPARE AND BRANCH, do not have long forms.
We would need to do something else before supporting them.
(Although COMPARE AND BRANCH does not change the condition codes,
the plan is to model COMPARE AND BRANCH as a CC-clobbering instruction
during codegen, so that we can safely lower it to a separate compare
and long branch where necessary. This is not a valid transformation
for the assembler proper to make.)
This patch therefore moves branch relaxation to a pre-emit pass.
For now, calls are still shortened from BRASL to BRAS by the assembler,
although this too is not really the traditional behaviour.
The first test takes about 1.5s to run, and there are likely to be
more tests in this vein once further branch types are added. The feeling
on IRC was that 1.5s is a bit much for a single test, so I've restricted
it to SystemZ hosts for now.
The patch exposes (and fixes) some typos in the main CodeGen/SystemZ tests.
A later patch will remove the {{g}}s from that directory.

This adds the actual lib/Target/SystemZ target files necessary to
implement the SystemZ target. Note that at this point, the target
cannot yet be built since the configure bits are missing. Those
will be provided shortly by a follow-on patch.
This version of the patch incorporates feedback from reviews by
Chris Lattner and Anton Korobeynikov. Thanks to all reviewers!
Patch by Richard Sandiford.
