This patch fixes an old FIXME by creating a MCTargetStreamer interface
and moving the target specific functions for ARM, Mips and PPC to it.
The ARM streamer is still declared in a common place because it is
used from lib/CodeGen/ARMException.cpp, but the Mips and PPC are
completely hidden in the corresponding Target directories.
I will send an email to llvmdev with instructions on how to use this.

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.

We used to generate the compact unwind encoding from the machine
instructions. However, this had the problem that if the user used `-save-temps'
or compiled their hand-written `.s' file (with CFI directives), we wouldn't
generate the compact unwind encoding.
Move the algorithm that generates the compact unwind encoding into the
MCAsmBackend. This way we can generate the encoding whether the code is from a
`.ll' or `.s' file.

When producing objects that are abi compliant we are
marking neither the object file nor the assembly file
correctly and thus generate warnings.
We need to set the EF_CPIC flag in the ELF header when
generating direct object.
Note that the warning is only generated when compiling without PIC.
When compiling with clang the warning will be suppressed by supplying:
-Wa,-mno-shared -Wa,-call_nonpic
Also the following directive should also be added:
.option pic0
when compiling without PIC, This eliminates the need for supplying:
-mno-shared -call_nonpic
on the assembler command line.

It was just a less powerful and more confusing version of
MCCFIInstruction. A side effect is that, since MCCFIInstruction uses
dwarf register numbers, calls to getDwarfRegNum are pushed out, which
should allow further simplifications.
I left the MachineModuleInfo::addFrameMove interface unchanged since
this patch was already fairly big.

For mips a branch an 18-bit signed offset (the 16-bit
offset field shifted left 2 bits) is added to the
address of the instruction following the branch
(not the branch itself), in the branch delay slot,
to form a PC-relative effective target address.
Previously, the code generator did not perform the
shift of the immediate branch offset which resulted
in wrong instruction opcode. This patch fixes the issue.

and update ELF header e_flags.
Currently gathering information such as symbol,
section and data is done by collecting it in an
MCAssembler object. From MCAssembler and MCAsmLayout
objects ELFObjectWriter::WriteObject() forms and
streams out the ELF object file.
This patch just adds a few members to the MCAssember
class to store and access the e_flag settings. It
allows for runtime additions to the e_flag by
assembler directives. The standalone assembler can
get to MCAssembler from getParser().getStreamer().getAssembler().
This patch is the generic infrastructure and will be
followed by patches for ARM and Mips for their target
specific use.

even tested with llvm-lit -v --vg.
Support for Mips register information sections.
Mips ELF object files have a section that is dedicated
to register use info. Some of this information such as
the assumed Global Pointer value is used by the linker
in relocation resolution.
The register info file is .reginfo in o32 and .MIPS.options
in 64 and n32 abi files.
This patch contains the changes needed to create the sections,
but leaves the actual register accounting for a future patch.

Mips16 is really a processor decoding mode (ala thumb 1) and in the same
program, mips16 and mips32 functions can exist and can call each other.
If a jal type instruction encounters an address with the lower bit set, then
the processor switches to mips16 mode (if it is not already in it). If the
lower bit is not set, then it switches to mips32 mode.
The linker knows which functions are mips16 and which are mips32.
When relocation is performed on code labels, this lower order bit is
set if the code label is a mips16 code label.
In general this works just fine, however when creating exception handling
tables and dwarf, there are cases where you don't want this lower order
bit added in.
This has been traditionally distinguished in gas assembly source by using a
different syntax for the label.
lab1: ; this will cause the lower order bit to be added
lab2=. ; this will not cause the lower order bit to be added
In some cases, it does not matter because in dwarf and debug tables
the difference of two labels is used and in that case the lower order
bits subtract each other out.
To fix this, I have added to mcstreamer the notion of a debuglabel.
The default is for label and debug label to be the same. So calling
EmitLabel and EmitDebugLabel produce the same result.
For various reasons, there is only one set of labels that needs to be
modified for the mips exceptions to work. These are the "$eh_func_beginXXX"
labels.
Mips overrides the debug label suffix from ":" to "=." .
This initial patch fixes exceptions. More changes most likely
will be needed to DwarfCFException to make all of this work
for actual debugging. These changes will be to emit debug labels in some
places where a simple label is emitted now.

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

If the code is generated as assembler, this transformation does not occur assuming that it will occur later in the assembler.
This code was originally called from MipsAsmPrinter.cpp and we needed to check for OutStreamer.hasRawTextSupport(). This was not a good place for it and has been moved to MCTargetDesc/MipsMCCodeEmitter.cpp where both direct object and the assembler use it it automagically.
The test cases have been checked in for a number of weeks now.
