This patch improves the target-specific cost model to better handle signed
division by a power of two. The immediate result is that this enables the SLP
vectorizer to do a better job.

The increase of the interleave factor to 4 has side-effects
like performance losses eg. due to reminder loops being executed
more frequently and may increase code size. It requires more
analysis and careful heuristic tuning. Expect double digit gains
in small benchmarks like lowercase.c and losses in puzzle.c.

"Unroll" is not the appropriate name for this variable. Clang already uses
the term "interleave" in pragmas and metadata for this.

This patch adds support to recognize division by uniform power of 2 and modifies the cost table to vectorize division by uniform power of 2 whenever possible.
Updates Cost model for Loop and SLP Vectorizer.The cost table is currently only updated for X86 backend.
Thanks to Hal, Andrea, Sanjay for the review. (http://reviews.llvm.org/D4971)

Some types, such as 128-bit vector types on AArch64, don't have any callee-saved registers. So if a value needs to stay live over a callsite, it must be spilled and refilled. This cost is now taken into account.

There's probably no acatual change in behaviour here, just updating
the LowerFP_TO_INT function to be more similar to the reverse
implementation and updating costs to current CodeGen.

This commit starts with a "git mv ARM64 AArch64" and continues out
from there, renaming the C++ classes, intrinsics, and other
target-local objects for consistency.
"ARM64" test directories are also moved, and tests that began their
life in ARM64 use an arm64 triple, those from AArch64 use an aarch64
triple. Both should be equivalent though.
This finishes the AArch64 merge, and everyone should feel free to
continue committing as normal now.

I'm doing this in two phases for a better "git blame" record. This
commit removes the previous AArch64 backend and redirects all
functionality to ARM64. It also deduplicates test-lines and removes
orphaned AArch64 tests.
The next step will be "git mv ARM64 AArch64" and rewire most of the
tests.
Hopefully LLVM is still functional, though it would be even better if
no-one ever had to care because the rename happens straight
afterwards.

the stack of the analysis group because they are all immutable passes.
This is made clear by Craig's recent work to use override
systematically -- we weren't overriding anything for 'finalizePass'
because there is no such thing.
This is kind of a lame restriction on the API -- we can no longer push
and pop things, we just set up the stack and run. However, I'm not
invested in building some better solution on top of the existing
(terrifying) immutable pass and legacy pass manager.
