This change adds a support for a preserve_most calling convention to the AArch64 backend, similar to how it was done for X86-64.
There is also a subsequent patch on top of this one to add a tail-calls support for this calling convention.

The access function has a short entry and a short exit, the initialization
block is only run the first time. To improve the performance, we want to
have a short frame at the entry and exit.
We explicitly handle most of the CSRs via copies. Only the CSRs that are not
handled via copies will be in CSR_SaveList.
Frame lowering and prologue/epilogue insertion will generate a short frame
in the entry and exit according to CSR_SaveList. The majority of the CSRs will
be handled by register allcoator. Register allocator will try to spill and
reload them in the initialization block.
We add CSRsViaCopy, it will be explicitly handled during lowering.
1> we first set FunctionLoweringInfo->SplitCSR if conditions are met (the target
supports it for the given machine function and the function has only return
exits). We also call TLI->initializeSplitCSR to perform initialization.
2> we call TLI->insertCopiesSplitCSR to insert copies from CSRsViaCopy to
virtual registers at beginning of the entry block and copies from virtual
registers to CSRsViaCopy at beginning of the exit blocks.
3> we also need to make sure the explicit copies will not be eliminated.
The target independent portion was committed as r255353.

Summary:
This change is part of a series of commits dedicated to have a single
DataLayout during compilation by using always the one owned by the
module.
This patch is quite boring overall, except for some uglyness in
ASMPrinter which has a getDataLayout function but has some clients
that use it without a Module (llmv-dsymutil, llvm-dwarfdump), so
some methods are taking a DataLayout as parameter.

The nest attribute is currently supported on the x86 (32-bit) and x86-64
backends, but not on ARM (32-bit) or AArch64. This patch adds support for
nest to the AArch64 backend.
Register x18 is used by GCC for this purpose and hence is used here.
As discussed on the GCC mailing list the register choice is an ABI issue
and so choosing the same register as GCC means __builtin_call_with_static_chain
is compatible.

derived classes.
Since global data alignment, layout, and mangling is often based on the
DataLayout, move it to the TargetMachine. This ensures that global
data is going to be layed out and mangled consistently if the subtarget
changes on a per function basis. Prior to this all targets(*) have
had subtarget dependent code moved out and onto the TargetMachine.
*One target hasn't been migrated as part of this change: R600. The
R600 port has, as a subtarget feature, the size of pointers and
this affects global data layout. I've currently hacked in a FIXME
to enable progress, but the port needs to be updated to either pass
the 64-bitness to the TargetMachine, or fix the DataLayout to
avoid subtarget dependent features.

The AAPCS treats small structs and homogeneous floating (or vector) aggregates
specially, and guarantees they either get passed as a contiguous block of
registers, or prevent any future use of those registers and get passed on the
stack.
This concept can fit quite neatly into LLVM's own type system, mapping an HFA
to [N x float] and so on, and small structs to [N x i64]. Doing so allows
front-ends to emit AAPCS compliant code without having to duplicate the
register counting logic.

This teaches the AArch64 backend to deal with the operations required
to deal with the operations on v4f16 and v8f16 which are exposed by
NEON intrinsics, plus the add, sub, mul and div operations.

to get the subtarget and that's accessible from the MachineFunction
now. This helps clear the way for smaller changes where we getting
a subtarget will require passing in a MachineFunction/Function as
well.

This means the output of LowerFormalArguments returns a lowered
SDValue with the correct type (expected in SelectionDAGBuilder).
Without this, an assertion under a DEBUG macro triggers when those
types are passed on the stack.

We can eliminate the custom C++ code in favour of some TableGen to
check the same things. Functionality should be identical, except for a
buffer overrun that was present in the C++ code and meant webkit
failed if any small argument needed to be passed on the stack.

This commit starts with a "git mv ARM64 AArch64" and continues out
from there, renaming the C++ classes, intrinsics, and other
target-local objects for consistency.
"ARM64" test directories are also moved, and tests that began their
life in ARM64 use an arm64 triple, those from AArch64 use an aarch64
triple. Both should be equivalent though.
This finishes the AArch64 merge, and everyone should feel free to
continue committing as normal now.
