Move to a by-section allocation and relocation scheme. This allows
better support for sections which do not contain externally visible
symbols.
Flesh out the relocation address vs. local storage address separation a
bit more as well. Remote process JITs use this to tell the relocation
resolution code where the code will live when it executes.
The startFunctionBody/endFunctionBody interfaces to the JIT and the
memory manager are deprecated. They'll stick around for as long as the
old JIT does, but the MCJIT doesn't use them anymore.

Register masks will be used as a compact representation of large clobber
lists. Currently, an x86 call instruction has some 40 operands
representing call-clobbered registers. That's more than 1kB of useless
operands per call site.
A register mask operand references a bit mask of call-preserved
registers, everything else is clobbered. The bit mask will typically
come from TargetRegisterInfo::getCallPreservedMask().
By abandoning ImplicitDefs for call-clobbered registers, it also becomes
possible to share call instruction descriptions between calling
conventions, and we can get rid of the WINCALL* instructions.
This patch introduces the new operand kind. Future patches will add
RegMask support to target-independent passes before finally the fixed
clobber lists can be removed from call instruction descriptions.

We know that the blend instructions only use the MSB, so if the mask is
sign-extended then we can convert it into a SHL instruction. This is a
common pattern because the type-legalizer sign-extends the i1 type which
is used by the LLVM-IR for the condition.
Added a new optimization in SimplifyDemandedBits for SIGN_EXTEND_INREG -> SHL.

or Clang is using this, and it would be hard to use it correctly given
the thread hostility of the function. Also, it never checked the return
which is rather dangerous with chdir. If someone was in fact using this,
please let me know, as well as what the usecase actually is so that
I can add it back and make it more correct and secure to use. (That
said, it's never going to be "safe" per-se, but we could at least
document the risks...)

live across BBs before register allocation. This miscompiled 197.parser
when a cmp + b are optimized to a cbnz instruction even though the CPSR def
is live-in a successor.

The fix consists of two parts. 1) Teach LiveVariables that some unallocatable
registers might be liveouts so don't mark their last use as kill if they are.
2) ARM constantpool island pass shouldn't form cbz / cbnz if the conditional
branch does not kill CPSR.

The QQ and QQQQ registers are not 'real', they are pseudo-registers used
to model some vld and vst instructions.
This makes the call clobber lists longer, but I intend to get rid of
those soon.
