We've been performing the wrong operation on ARM for "atomicrmw nand" for
years, since "a NAND b" is "~(a & b)" rather than ARM's very tempting "a & ~b".
This bled over into the generic expansion pass.
So I assume no-one has ever actually tried to do an atomic nand in the real
world. Oh well.

This also simplifies the IR we create slightly: instead of working out
where success & failure should go manually, it turns out we can just
always jump to a success/failure block created for the purpose. Later
phases will sort out the mess without much difficulty.

This has two benefits: it makes the result more suitable for direct
insertaion into the struct to emulate the new cmpxchg, and it means
the name we give the instruction matches its actual effect better.

This commit adds a weak variant of the cmpxchg operation, as described
in C++11. A cmpxchg instruction with this modifier is permitted to
fail to store, even if the comparison indicated it should.
As a result, cmpxchg instructions must return a flag indicating
success in addition to their original iN value loaded. Thus, for
uniformity *all* cmpxchg instructions now return "{ iN, i1 }". The
second flag is 1 when the store succeeded.
At the DAG level, a new ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP_WITH_SUCCESS node has been
added as the natural representation for the new cmpxchg instructions.
It is a strong cmpxchg.
By default this gets Expanded to the existing ATOMIC_CMP_SWAP during
Legalization, so existing backends should see no change in behaviour.
If they wish to deal with the enhanced node instead, they can call
setOperationAction on it. Beware: as a node with 2 results, it cannot
be selected from TableGen.
Currently, no use is made of the extra information provided in this
patch. Test updates are almost entirely adapting the input IR to the
new scheme.
Summary for out of tree users:
------------------------------
+ Legacy Bitcode files are upgraded during read.
+ Legacy assembly IR files will be invalid.
+ Front-ends must adapt to different type for "cmpxchg".
+ Backends should be unaffected by default.

Still only 32-bit ARM using it at this stage, but the promotion allows
direct testing via opt and is a reasonably self-contained patch on the
way to switching ARM64.
At this point, other targets should be able to make use of it without
too much difficulty if they want. (See ARM64 commit coming soon for an
example).
