This starts merging MCSection and MCSectionData.
There are a few issues with the current split between MCSection and
MCSectionData.
* It optimizes the the not as important case. We want the production
of .o files to be really fast, but the split puts the information used
for .o emission in a separate data structure.
* The ELF/COFF/MachO hierarchy is not represented in MCSectionData,
leading to some ad-hoc ways to represent the various flags.
* It makes it harder to remember where each item is.
The attached patch starts merging the two by moving the alignment from
MCSectionData to MCSection.
Most of the patch is actually just dropping 'const', since
MCSectionData is mutable, but MCSection was not.

Summary:
This assembler directive marks the current label as an instruction label in microMIPS and MIPS16.
This initial implementation works only for microMIPS.

There are two main advantages to doing this
* Targets that only need to handle one of the formats specially don't have
to worry about the others. For example, x86 now only registers a
constructor for the COFF streamer.
* Changes to the arguments passed to one format constructor will not impact
the other formats.

than on MipsSubtargetInfo.
This required a bit of massaging in the MC level to handle this since
MC is a) largely a collection of disparate classes with no hierarchy,
and b) there's no overarching equivalent to the TargetMachine, instead
only the subtarget via MCSubtargetInfo (which is the base class of
TargetSubtargetInfo).
We're now storing the ABI in both the TargetMachine level and in the
MC level because the AsmParser and the TargetStreamer both need to
know what ABI we have to parse assembly and emit objects. The target
streamer has a pointer to the one in the asm parser and is updated
when the asm parser is created. This is fragile as the FIXME comment
notes, but shouldn't be a problem in practice since we always
create an asm parser before attempting to emit object code via the
assembler. The TargetMachine now contains the ABI so that the DataLayout
can be constructed dependent upon ABI.
All testcases have been updated to use the -target-abi command line
flag so that we can set the ABI without using a subtarget feature.
Should be no change visible externally here.

Add header guards to files that were missing guards. Remove #endif comments
as they don't seem common in LLVM (we can easily add them back if we decide
they're useful)

This abstraction allows us to support the various records that can be placed in
the .MIPS.options section in the future. We currently use it to record register
usage information (the ODK_REGINFO record in our ELF64 spec).
Each .MIPS.options record should subclass MipsOptionRecord and provide an
implementation of EmitMipsOptionRecord.

This allows us to insert some hooks before emitting data into an actual object file.
For example, we can capture the register usage for a translation unit by overriding
the EmitInstruction method. The register usage information is needed to generate
.reginfo and .Mips.options ELF sections.
No functional changes.

When MC was first added, targets could use hasRawTextSupport to keep features
working before they were added to the MC interface.
The design goal of MC is to provide an uniform api for printing assembly and
object files. Short of relaxations and other corner cases, a object file is
just another representation of the assembly.
It was never the intention that targets would keep doing things like
if (hasRawTextSupport())
Set flags in one way.
else
Set flags in another way.
When they do that they create two code paths and the object file is no longer
just another representation of the assembly. This also then requires testing
with llc -filetype=obj, which is extremelly brittle.
This patch removes some of these hacks by replacing them with smaller ones.
The ARM flag setting is trivial, so I just moved it to the constructor. For
Mips, the patch adds two temporary hack directives that allow the assembly
to represent the same things as the object file was already able to.
The hope is that the mips developers will replace the hack directives with
the same ones that gas uses and drop the -print-hack-directives flag.
I will also try to implement a target streamer interface, so that we can
move this out of the common code.
In summary, for any new work, two rules of the thumb are
* Don't use "llc -filetype=obj" in tests.
* Don't add calls to hasRawTextSupport.

This patch handles LLVM standalone assembler (llvm-mc) ELF flag setting based on input file
directive processing.
Mips assembly requires processing inline directives that directly and
indirectly affect the output ELF header flags. This patch handles one
".abicalls".
To process these directives we are following the model the code generator
uses by storing state in a container as we go through processing and when
we detect the end of input file processing, AsmParser is notified and we
update the ELF header flags through a MipsELFStreamer method with a call from
MCTargetAsmParser::emitEndOfAsmFile(MCStreamer &OutStreamer).
This patch will allow other targets the same functionality.
