Add a man page for llvmc. Really basic for now, will be updated later.

=head1 NAME
llvmc - The LLVM Compiler Driver (WIP)
=head1 SYNOPSIS
B<llvmc> [I<options>] I<filenames...>
=head1 DESCRIPTION
B<llvmc> is a configurable driver for invoking other LLVM (and non-LLVM) tools
in order to compile, optimize and link software for multiple languages. For
those familiar with FSF's B<gcc> tool, it is very similar. Please note that
B<llvmc> is considered an experimental tool.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over
=item B<--help>
Print a summary of command line options.
=item B<-o> I<filename>
Specify the output file to be I<filename>.
=item B<-I> I<directory>
Add a directory to the header file search path. This option can be
repeated.
=item B<-L> I<directory>
Add I<directory> to the library search path. This option can be
repeated.
=item B<-l>I<name>
Link in the library libI<name>.[bc | a | so]. This library should
be a bitcode library.
=item B<-emit-llvm>
Make the output be LLVM bitcode (with B<-c>) or assembly (with B<-s>) instead
of native object (or assembly). If B<-emit-llvm> is given without either B<-c>
or B<-S> it has no effect.
=back
=head1 EXIT STATUS
If B<llvmc> succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error
occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value. If one of the compilation
tools returns a non-zero status, pending actions will be discarded and
B<llvmc> will return the same result code as the failing compilation
tool.
