This was done through the aid of a terrible Perl creation. I will not
paste any of the horrors here. Suffice to say, it require multiple
staged rounds of replacements, state carried between, and a few
nested-construct-parsing hacks that I'm not proud of. It happens, by
luck, to be able to deal with all the TCL-quoting patterns in evidence
in the LLVM test suite.
If anyone is maintaining large out-of-tree test trees, feel free to poke
me and I'll send you the steps I used to convert things, as well as
answer any painful questions etc. IRC works best for this type of thing
I find.
Once converted, switch the LLVM lit config to use ShTests the same as
Clang. In addition to being able to delete large amounts of Python code
from 'lit', this will also simplify the entire test suite and some of
lit's architecture.
Finally, the test suite runs 33% faster on Linux now. ;]

delegates to the regular x86-32 convention which handles byval, but only
after it handles a few cases, and it's necessary to handle byval before
handling those cases. This fixes PR3122 (and rdar://6400815), llvm-gcc
miscompiling LLVM.

optimized x86-64 (and x86) calls so that they work (... at least for
my test cases).
Should fix the following problems:
Problem 1: When i introduced the optimized handling of arguments for
tail called functions (using a sequence of copyto/copyfrom virtual
registers instead of always lowering to top of the stack) i did not
handle byval arguments correctly e.g they did not work at all :).
Problem 2: On x86-64 after the arguments of the tail called function
are moved to their registers (which include ESI/RSI etc), tail call
optimization performs byval lowering which causes xSI,xDI, xCX
registers to be overwritten. This is handled in this patch by moving
the arguments to virtual registers first and after the byval lowering
the arguments are moved from those virtual registers back to
RSI/RDI/RCX.
