ARM seems to prefer that long literals be formed from their little end in
order to promote the fusion of the instrs pairs MOV/MOVK and MOVK/MOVK on
Cortex A57 and others (v. "Cortex A57 Software Optimisation Guide", section
4.14).

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.

According to the AArch64 ELF specification (4.6.8), it's the
assembler's responsibility to make sure the shift amount is correct in
relocated MOVZ/MOVK instructions.
This wasn't being obeyed by either the MCJIT CodeGen or RuntimeDyldELF
(which happened to work out well for JIT tests). This commit should
make us compliant in this area.
