Instead of calling CUDA runtime to arrange function arguments,
the new API constructs arguments in a local array and the kernels
are launched with __cudaLaunchKernel().
The old API has been deprecated and is expected to go away
in the next CUDA release.

HIP is a language similar to CUDA (https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/HIP/blob/master/docs/markdown/hip_kernel_language.md ).
The language syntax is very similar, which allows a hip program to be compiled as a CUDA program by Clang. The main difference
is the host API. HIP has a set of vendor neutral host API which can be implemented on different platforms. Currently there is open source
implementation of HIP runtime on amdgpu target (https://github.com/ROCm-Developer-Tools/HIP).
This patch adds support of input kind and language standard hip.
When hip file is compiled, both LangOpts.CUDA and LangOpts.HIP is turned on. This allows compilation of hip program as CUDA
in most cases and only special handling of hip program is needed LangOpts.HIP is checked.
This patch also adds support of kernel launching of HIP program using HIP host API.
When -x hip is not specified, there is no behaviour change for CUDA.
