This change implements the transformation in processInstruction() for the
LDR rt, =expression to MOV rt, expression when the expression can be evaluated
and can fit into the immediate field of the MOV or a MVN.
Across the ARM and Thumb instruction sets there are several cases to consider,
each with a different range of representatble constants.
In ARM we have:
* Modified immediate (All ARM architectures)
* MOVW (v6t2 and above)
In Thumb we have:
* Modified immediate (v6t2, v7m and v8m.mainline)
* MOVW (v6t2, v7m, v8.mainline and v8m.baseline)
* Narrow Thumb MOV that can be used in an IT block (non flag-setting)
If the immediate fits any of the available alternatives then we make the transformation.
Fixes 25722.

Alter instances in the test-suite that use immediates that can be represented
in the immediate field of a MOV. The reason for doing this is that when the
LDR rt,=imm transformation to MOV rt, imm the existing tests do not need to
be modified.

The ldr-pseudo opcode is a convenience for loading 32-bit constants.
It is converted into a pc-relative load from a constant pool. For
example,
ldr r0, =0x10001
ldr r1, =bar
will generate this output in the final assembly
ldr r0, .Ltmp0
ldr r1, .Ltmp1
...
.Ltmp0: .long 0x10001
.Ltmp1: .long bar
Sketch of the LDR pseudo implementation:
Keep a map from Section => ConstantPool
When parsing ldr r0, =val
parse val as an MCExpr
get ConstantPool for current Section
Label = CreateTempSymbol()
remember val in ConstantPool at next free slot
add operand to ldr that is MCSymbolRef of Label
On finishParse() callback
Write out all non-empty constant pools
for each Entry in ConstantPool
Emit Entry.Label
Emit Entry.Value
Possible improvements to be added in a later patch:
1. Does not convert load of small constants to mov
(e.g. ldr r0, =0x1 => mov r0, 0x1)
2. Does reuse constant pool entries for same constant
The implementation was tested for ARM, Thumb1, and Thumb2 targets on
linux and darwin.
