The theory is it's still faster than a pair of movq / a quad of movl. This
will probably hurt older chips like P4 but should run faster on current
and future Intel processors. rdar://8817010

1. Makes it possible to lower with floating point loads and stores.
2. Avoid unaligned loads / stores unless it's fast.
3. Fix some memcpy lowering logic bug related to when to optimize a
load from constant string into a constant.
4. Adjust x86 memcpy lowering threshold to make it more sane.
5. Fix x86 target hook so it uses vector and floating point memory
ops more effectively.

1. x86-64 byval alignment should be max of 8 and alignment of type. Previously the code was not doing what the commit message was saying.
2. Do not use byte repeat move and store operations. These are slow.

memcpy lowering code; this ensures that the size node has the desired
result type. This fixes a regression from r49572 with @llvm.memcpy.i64
on x86-32.
