This patch adds a ptrmask intrinsic which allows masking out bits of a
pointer that must be zero when accessing it, because of ABI alignment
requirements or a restriction of the meaningful bits of a pointer
through the data layout.
This avoids doing a ptrtoint/inttoptr round trip in some cases (e.g. tagged
pointers) and allows us to not lose information about the underlying
object.
