The MOVZ/MOVK instruction sequence may not be the most efficient (a
literal-pool load could be better) but adding that would require
reinstating the ConstantIslands pass.
For now the sequence is correct, and that's enough. Beware, as of
commit GNU ld does not appear to support the relocations needed for
this. Its primary purpose (for now) will be to support JITed code,
since in that case there is no guarantee of where your code will end
up in memory relative to external symbols it references.

This moves the bit twiddling and string fiddling functions required by other
parts of the backend into a separate library. Previously they resided in
AArch64Desc, which created a circular dependency between various components.
