CodeGenABITypes is a wrapper built on top of CodeGenModule that exposes
some of the functionality of CodeGenTypes (held by CodeGenModule),
specifically methods that determine the LLVM types appropriate for
function argument and return values.
I addition to CodeGenABITypes.h, CGFunctionInfo.h is introduced, and the
definitions of ABIArgInfo, RequiredArgs, and CGFunctionInfo are moved
into this new header from the private headers ABIInfo.h and CGCall.h.
Exposing this functionality is one part of making it possible for LLDB
to determine the actual ABI locations of function arguments and return
values, making it possible for it to determine this for any supported
target without hard-coding ABI knowledge in the LLDB code.

For integer types of sizes 1, 2, 4 and 8, libcompiler-rt (and libgcc)
provide atomic functions that pass parameters by value and return
results directly.
libgcc and libcompiler-rt only provide optimized libcalls for
__atomic_fetch_*, as generic libcalls on non-integer types would make
little sense. This means that we can finally make __atomic_fetch_* work
on architectures for which we don't provide these operations as builtins
(e.g. ARM).
This should fix the dreaded "cannot compile this atomic library call
yet" error that would pop up once every while.
