This is a follow on from a similar LLVM commit: r253511.
Note, this was reviewed (and more details are in) http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20151109/312083.html
These intrinsics currently have an explicit alignment argument which is
required to be a constant integer. It represents the alignment of the
source and dest, and so must be the minimum of those.
This change allows source and dest to each have their own alignments
by using the alignment attribute on their arguments. The alignment
argument itself is removed.
The only code change to clang is hidden in CGBuilder.h which now passes
both dest and source alignment to IRBuilder, instead of taking the minimum of
dest and source alignments.

I randomly came across this difference between AArch64 and other targets:
on the latter, we don't emit nil checks for known non-nil class method
calls thanks to r247350, but we still do for AArch64 stret calls.
They use different code paths, because those are special, as they go
through the regular msgSend, not the msgSend*_stret variants.

This adds Clang support for the ARM64 backend. There are definitely
still some rough edges, so please bring up any issues you see with
this patch.
As with the LLVM commit though, we think it'll be more useful for
merging with AArch64 from within the tree.
