Targets implement a single global Target structure which will live in a new
<Target>/TargetInfo library; this will be present in any image which the target
is usable in.
- Optional target specific classes can then be registered and attached to the
Target description.
- Registration for normal Targets will be done via the initialization functions
instead of using static constructors.
- This allows clients to use a single interface to obtain target data, without
requiring the code generator be linked in. It also provides a natural
extension point for adding new optional target data (assembler parser,
disassembler, etc.).
- This also provides a new entry point for obtaining a target for a particular
triple (without a module).
- Not yet used, however this should eventually replace the TargetMachineRegistry.
