The summary is that it moves the mangling earlier and replaces a few
calls to .addExternalSymbol with addSym.
I originally wanted to replace all the uses of addExternalSymbol with
addSym, but noticed it was a lot of work and doesn't need to be done
all at once.

As is described at http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=22408, the GNU linkers
ld.bfd and ld.gold currently only support a subset of the whole range of AArch64
ELF TLS relocations. Furthermore, they assume that some of the code sequences to
access thread-local variables are produced in a very specific sequence.
When the sequence is not as the linker expects, it can silently mis-relaxe/mis-optimize
the instructions.
Even if that wouldn't be the case, it's good to produce the exact sequence,
as that ensures that linkers can perform optimizing relaxations.
This patch:
* implements support for 16MiB TLS area size instead of 4GiB TLS area size. Ideally clang
would grow an -mtls-size option to allow support for both, but that's not part of this patch.
* by default doesn't produce local dynamic access patterns, as even modern ld.bfd and ld.gold
linkers do not support the associated relocations. An option (-aarch64-elf-ldtls-generation)
is added to enable generation of local dynamic code sequence, but is off by default.
* makes sure that the exact expected code sequence for local dynamic and general dynamic
accesses is produced, by making use of a new pseudo instruction. The patch also removes
two (AArch64ISD::TLSDESC_BLR, AArch64ISD::TLSDESC_CALL) pre-existing AArch64-specific pseudo
SDNode instructions that are superseded by the new one (TLSDESC_CALLSEQ).

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.

I'm doing this in two phases for a better "git blame" record. This
commit removes the previous AArch64 backend and redirects all
functionality to ARM64. It also deduplicates test-lines and removes
orphaned AArch64 tests.
The next step will be "git mv ARM64 AArch64" and rewire most of the
tests.
Hopefully LLVM is still functional, though it would be even better if
no-one ever had to care because the rename happens straight
afterwards.

Patch by Ana Pazos.
- Completed implementation of instruction formats:
AdvSIMD three same
AdvSIMD modified immediate
AdvSIMD scalar pairwise
- Completed implementation of instruction classes
(some of the instructions in these classes
belong to yet unfinished instruction formats):
Vector Arithmetic
Vector Immediate
Vector Pairwise Arithmetic
- Initial implementation of instruction formats:
AdvSIMD scalar two-reg misc
AdvSIMD scalar three same
- Intial implementation of instruction class:
Scalar Arithmetic
- Initial clang changes to support arm v8 intrinsics.
Note: no clang changes for scalar intrinsics function name mangling yet.
- Comprehensive test cases for added instructions
To verify auto codegen, encoding, decoding, diagnosis, intrinsics.

The MOVZ/MOVK instruction sequence may not be the most efficient (a
literal-pool load could be better) but adding that would require
reinstating the ConstantIslands pass.
For now the sequence is correct, and that's enough. Beware, as of
commit GNU ld does not appear to support the relocations needed for
this. Its primary purpose (for now) will be to support JITed code,
since in that case there is no guarantee of where your code will end
up in memory relative to external symbols it references.

This moves the bit twiddling and string fiddling functions required by other
parts of the backend into a separate library. Previously they resided in
AArch64Desc, which created a circular dependency between various components.

This patch adds support for AArch64 (ARM's 64-bit architecture) to
LLVM in the "experimental" category. Currently, it won't be built
unless requested explicitly.
This initial commit should have support for:
+ Assembly of all scalar (i.e. non-NEON, non-Crypto) instructions
(except the late addition CRC instructions).
+ CodeGen features required for C++03 and C99.
+ Compilation for the "small" memory model: code+static data <
4GB.
+ Absolute and position-independent code.
+ GNU-style (i.e. "__thread") TLS.
+ Debugging information.
The principal omission, currently, is performance tuning.
This patch excludes the NEON support also reviewed due to an outbreak of
batshit insanity in our legal department. That will be committed soon bringing
the changes to precisely what has been approved.
Further reviews would be gratefully received.
