COFF doesn't have mergeable sections so LLVM/clang's normal tactics for
string deduplication will not have any effect.
To remedy this we place each string inside it's own section and mark
the section as IMAGE_COMDAT_SELECT_ANY. However, we can only do this if the
string has an external name that we can generate from it's contents.
To be compatible with MSVC, we must use their scheme. Otherwise identical
strings in translation units from clang may not be deduplicated with
translation units in MSVC.
This fixes PR18248.
N.B. We will not attempt to do anything with a string literal which is not of
type 'char' or 'wchar_t' because their compiler does not support unicode
string literals as of this date. Further, we avoid doing this if
either -fwritable-strings or -fsanitize=address are present.
This reverts commit r204596.

Use two check-prefix patterns per FileCheck invocation for these tests,
this cleanly removes redundant CHECK directives.
Thanks to Richard Smith for the idea!

This patch then adds all the usual platform-specific pieces for SystemZ:
driver support, basic target info, register names and constraints,
ABI info and vararg support. It also adds new tests to verify pre-defined
macros and inline asm, and updates a test for the minimum alignment change.
This version of the patch incorporates feedback from reviews by
Eric Christopher and John McCall. Thanks to all reviewers!
Patch by Richard Sandiford.

- This is designed to make it obvious that %clang_cc1 is a "test variable"
which is substituted. It is '%clang_cc1' instead of '%clang -cc1' because it
can be useful to redefine what gets run as 'clang -cc1' (for example, to set
a default target).

- Returns addr of constant for argument + '\0'.
- I couldn't think of a better name.
- Move appropriate users of GetAddrOfConstantString to this.
Rename getStringForStringLiteral to GetStringForStringLiteral.
Add GetAddrOfConstantStringFromLiteral
- This combines GetAddrOfConstantString and
GetStringForStringLiteral. This method can be, but is not yet, more
efficient.
Change GetAddrOfConstantString to not add terminating '\0'
