JF Bastien e43a24e432 Refactor AtomicExpand::expandAtomicRMWToCmpXchg into a standalone function.
Summary:
This is useful for PNaCl's `RewriteAtomics` pass. NaCl intrinsics don't exist for some of the more exotic RMW instructions, so by refactoring this function into its own, `RewriteAtomics` can share code rewriting those atomics with `AtomicExpand` while additionally saving a few cycles by generating the `cmpxchg` NaCl-specific intrinsic with the callback. Without this patch, `RewriteAtomics` would require two extra passes over functions, by first requiring use of the full `AtomicExpand` pass to just expand the leftover exotic RMWs and then running itself again to expand resulting `cmpxchg`s.
