* Made bullet points start with a verb and lowercase, since they are not
complete sentences
* Cleaned up grammar, removed extraneous verbosity

This is the first incremental patch to implement this feature. It adds no
functionality to LLVM but setup up the information needed from targets in
order to implement the optimization correctly. Each target needs to specify
the maximum number of store operations for conversion of the llvm.memset,
llvm.memcpy, and llvm.memmove intrinsics into a sequence of store operations.
The limit needs to be chosen at the threshold of performance for such an
optimization (generally smallish). The target also needs to specify whether
the target can support unaligned stores for multi-byte store operations.
This helps ensure the optimization doesn't generate code that will trap on
an alignment errors.
More patches to follow.

for the command line options. This helps with situations where the executable
name sought is too generic and a more meaningful name needs to be used for
the command line options. It also helps satisfy picky project leaders.

* FIND_STD_PROGRAM will find a program in the path or using --with options
and verify that the path/bin/program is executable. Also allows checking
for include files and libraries. If found, USE_PROGRAM is set, otherwise
its not set. Also sets PROGRAM_BIN (bin directory), and PROGRAM_DIR (top
level directory). If headers are found, sets PROGRAM_INC. If libraries
are found, sets PROGRAM_LIB.
* CHECK_PROGRAM_SANITY can be used to run a program with some option that
only produces information output and requires no input. If the output
matches a regular expression, the program passes the sanity check.
Otherwise, an error occurs.

vector that represents the .o file at once, build up a vector for each
section of the .o file. This is needed because the .o file writer needs
to be able to switch between sections as it emits them (e.g. switch
between the .text section and the .rel section when emitting code).
This patch has no functionality change.

legalizer to eliminate them. With this comes the expected code quality
improvements, such as, for this:
double foo(unsigned short X) { return X; }
we now generate this:
_foo:
subl $4, %esp
movzwl 8(%esp), %eax
movl %eax, (%esp)
fildl (%esp)
addl $4, %esp
ret
instead of this:
_foo:
subl $4, %esp
movw 8(%esp), %ax
movzwl %ax, %eax ;; Load not folded into this.
movl %eax, (%esp)
fildl (%esp)
addl $4, %esp
ret

SelectionDAGLegalize::ExpandLegalUINT_TO_FP method.
Add a new method, PromoteLegalUINT_TO_FP, which allows targets to request
that UINT_TO_FP operations be promoted to a larger input type. This is
useful for targets that have some UINT_TO_FP or SINT_TO_FP operations but
not all of them (like X86).
The same should be done with SINT_TO_FP, but this patch does not do that
yet.
