.byte supports string, so if the whole byte list are printable,
we can actually print the string for readability and LIT tests maintainence.
.byte 'H,'e,'l,'l,'o,',,' ,'w,'o,'r,'l,'d
->
.byte "Hello, world"

This is for XCOFF DWARF support.
Seems when DWARF debug is enable, symbol 0 has special usage
for AIX binder. At least, symbol 0 can not be the .text
section. Otherwise, we get some binding time error.
Add correct C_FILE symbol at index 0 here to make AIX binder
work.

This patch is the initial patch for support of the AIX extended vector ABI. The extended ABI treats vector registers V20-V31 as non-volatile and we add them as callee saved registers in this patch.

Summary:
This patch does the following:
1. Make InitTargetOptionsFromCodeGenFlags() accepts Triple as a
parameter, because some options' default value is triple dependant.
2. DataSections is turned on by default on AIX for llc.
3. Test cases change accordingly because of the default behaviour change.
4. Clang Driver passes in -fdata-sections by default on AIX.

Summary:
Some design decision worth noting about:
I've noticed a recent mailing discussing about why string literal is
not affected by -fdata-sections for ELF target:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2020-September/145121.html
But on AIX, our linker could not split the mergeable string like other target.
So I think it would make more sense for us to emit separate csect for
every mergeable string in -fdata-sections mode,
as there might not be other ways for linker to do garbage collection
on unused mergeable string.
