(e.g., .objc_message_refs).
- Just emit a .align when we see the directive; this isn't exactly what 'as'
does but in practice it should be ok, at least for now. See FIXME.

- Together these form the (Mach-O) back end of the assembler.
- MCAssembler is the actual assembler backend, which is designed to have a
reasonable API. This will eventually grow to support multiple object file
implementations, but for now its Mach-O/i386 only.
- MCMachOStreamer adapts the MCStreamer "actions" API to the MCAssembler API,
e.g. converting the various directives into fragments, managing state like
the current section, and so on.
- llvm-mc will use the new backend via '-filetype=obj', which may eventually
be, but is not yet, since I hear that people like assemblers which actually
assemble.
- The only thing that works at the moment is changing sections. For the time
being I have a Python Mach-O dumping tool in test/scripts so this stuff can
be easily tested, eventually I expect to replace this with a real LLVM tool.
- More doxyments to come.
I assume that since this stuff doesn't touch any of the things which are part of
2.6 that it is ok to put this in not so long before the freeze, but if someone
objects let me know, I can pull it.

- Add missing flags for various Objective-C sections.
- Fix names for [non_]lazy_symbol_pointer (these are misspelled in the manual).
- .symbol_stub does not have the self modifying code flag set (this appears to
be wrong in the manual?).
- Add implicit alignment values; not yet used.
Also, call MCStreamer::Finish at the end of a successful parse.

specific printer (this only works on x86, for now).
- This makes it possible to do some correctness checking of the parsing and
matching, since we can compare the results of 'as' on the original input, to
those of 'as' on the output from llvm-mc.
- In theory, we could now have an easy ATT -> Intel syntax converter. :)

instead of syntactically as a string. This means that it keeps track of the
segment, section, flags, etc directly and asmprints them in the right format.
This also includes parsing and validation support for llvm-mc and
"attribute(section)", so we should now start getting errors about invalid
section attributes from the compiler instead of the assembler on darwin.
Still todo:
1) Uniquing of darwin mcsections
2) Move all the Darwin stuff out to MCSectionMachO.[cpp|h]
3) there are a few FIXMEs, for example what is the syntax to get the
S_GB_ZEROFILL segment type?

I can clean this up a bit more and do way with the TheCondState and just use
the top element on the TheCondStack if not empty. Also may tweak the code
around ParseConditionalAssemblyDirectives() to simplify the AsmParser code.

- Uses MCAsmToken::getIdentifier which returns the (sub)string representing the
meaningfull contents a string or identifier token.
- Directives aren't done yet.

- This is a simplified mechanism which just looks up a target based on the
target triple, with a few additional flags.
- Remove getClosestStaticTargetForModule, the moral equivalent is now:
lookupTarget(Mod->getTargetTriple, true, false, ...);
- This no longer does the fuzzy matching with target data (based on endianness
and pointer width) that getClosestStaticTargetForModule was doing, but this
was deemed unnecessary.
llvm-svn: 77111
- Yay for '-'s and simplifications!
- I kept StringMap::GetOrCreateValue for compatibility purposes, this can
eventually go away. Likewise the StringMapEntry Create functions still follow
the old style.
- NIFC.

the parsing of the .dump and .load should be done in the assembly parser and
not have any need for an MCStreamer API. Changed the code for now so these
just produce an error saying these specific directives are not yet implemented
since they are likely no longer used and may never need to be implemented.
