SystemZ wants normal register scavenging slots, as close to the stack or
frame pointer as possible. The only reason it was using custom code was
because PrologEpilogInserter assumed an x86-like layout, where the frame
pointer is at the opposite end of the frame from the stack pointer.
This meant that when frame pointer elimination was disabled,
the slots ended up being as close as possible to the incoming
stack pointer, which is the opposite of what we want on SystemZ.
This patch adds a new knob to say which layout is used and converts
SystemZ to use target-independent scavenging slots. It's one of the pieces
needed to support frame-to-frame MVCs, where two slots might be required.
The ABI requires us to allocate 160 bytes for calls, so one approach
would be to use that area as temporary spill space instead. It would need
some surgery to make sure that the slot isn't live across a call though.
I stuck to the "isFPCloseToIncomingSP - ..." style comment on the
"do what the surrounding code does" principle. The FP case is already
covered by several Systemz/frame-* tests, which fail without the
PrologueEpilogueInserter change, so no new ones are needed.
No behavioural change intended.

Addresses a review comment from Ulrich Weigand. No functional change intended.
I'm not sure whether the old TODO that this patch touches still holds,
but that's something we'd get to when adding a targetted scheduling
description.

This adds the actual lib/Target/SystemZ target files necessary to
implement the SystemZ target. Note that at this point, the target
cannot yet be built since the configure bits are missing. Those
will be provided shortly by a follow-on patch.
This version of the patch incorporates feedback from reviews by
Chris Lattner and Anton Korobeynikov. Thanks to all reviewers!
