This is not just a matter of passing in the target triple from the module;
currently backends are making decisions based on the build and host
architecture. The goal is to migrate to making these decisions based off of the
triple (in conjunction with the feature string). Thus most clients pass in the
target triple, or the host triple if that is empty.
This has one important change in the way behavior of the JIT and llc.
For the JIT, it was previously selecting the Target based on the host
(naturally), but it was setting the target machine features based on the triple
from the module. Now it is setting the target machine features based on the
triple of the host.
For LLC, -march was previously only used to select the target, the target
machine features were initialized from the module's triple (which may have been
empty). Now the target triple is taken from the module, or the host's triple is
used if that is empty. Then the triple is adjusted to match -march.
The take away is that -march for llc is now used in conjunction with the host
triple to initialize the subtarget. If users want more deterministic behavior
from llc, they should use -mtriple, or set the triple in the input module.

- 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.

an existing file is considered an error. Convert several tools
to use raw_fd_ostream instead of std::ostream, and to use this
new option instead of doing a manual check.

- They still use the TargetMachineRegistry to populate the contents of the
-march option (via the listener interface). We can't just populate it in the
option parser because we can't expect the TargetRegistry to be populated yet
(we no longer rely on static constructors).
- There are a couple ways to finish killing off TargetMachineRegistry, but I
haven't figured out the cleanest one yet...

elimination of relinked object files, so that we can build normal

Massive check in. This changes the "-fast" flag to "-O#" in llc. If you want to
use the old behavior, the flag is -O0. This change allows for finer-grained
control over which optimizations are run at different -O levels.
Most of this work was pretty mechanical. The majority of the fixes came from
verifying that a "fast" variable wasn't used anymore. The JIT still uses a
"Fast" flag. I'll change the JIT with a follow-up patch.

instead of requiring all "short description" strings to begin with
two spaces. This makes these strings less mysterious, and it fixes
some cases where short description strings mistakenly did not
begin with two spaces.
