DLL* linkages got full (I hope) codegeneration support in C & both x86
assembler backends.
External weak linkage added for future use, we don't provide any
codegeneration, etc. support for it.

This pass:
1. Splits TargetMachine into TargetMachine (generic targets, can be implemented
any way, like the CBE) and LLVMTargetMachine (subclass of TM that is used by
things using libcodegen and other support).
2. Instead of having each target fully populate the passmgr for file or JIT
output, move all this to common code, and give targets hooks they can
implement.
3. Commonalize the target population stuff between file emission and JIT
emission.
4. All (native code) codegen stuff now happens in a FunctionPassManager, which
paves the way for "fast -O0" stuff in the CFE later, and now LLC could
lazily stream .bc files from disk to use less memory.
5. There are now many fewer #includes and the targets don't depend on the
scalar xforms or libanalysis anymore (but codegen does).
6. Changing common code generator pass ordering stuff no longer requires
touching all targets.
7. The JIT now has the option of "-fast" codegen or normal optimized codegen,
which is now orthogonal to the fact that JIT'ing is being done.

in the start of an array and a count of operands where applicable. In many
cases, the number of operands is known, so this static array can be allocated
on the stack, avoiding the heap. In many other cases, a SmallVector can be
used, which has the same benefit in the common cases.
I updated a lot of code calling getNode that takes a vector, but ran out of
time. The rest of the code should be updated, and these methods should be
removed.
We should also do the same thing to eliminate the methods that take a
vector of MVT::ValueTypes.
It would be extra nice to convert the dagiselemitter to avoid creating vectors
for operands when calling getTargetNode.

x86 and ppc for 100% dense switch statements when relocations are non-PIC.
This support will be extended and enhanced in the coming days to support
PIC, and less dense forms of jump tables.

manner that the LowerSwitch LLVM to LLVM pass does: emitting a binary
search tree of basic blocks. The new approach has several advantages:
it is faster, it generates significantly smaller code in many cases, and
it paves the way for implementing dense switch tables as a jump table by
handling switches directly in the instruction selector.
This functionality is currently only enabled on x86, but should be safe for
every target. In anticipation of making it the default, the cfg is now
properly updated in the x86, ppc, and sparc select lowering code.
