pointer register.
This is the first of the series of patches which clean up the way global pointer
register is used. The patches will make the following improvements:
- Make $gp an allocatable temporary register rather than reserving it.
- Use a virtual register as the global pointer register and let the register
allocator decide which register to assign to it or whether spill/reloads are
needed.
- Make sure $gp is valid at the entry of a called function, which is necessary
for functions using lazy binding.
- Remove the need for emitting .cprestore and .cpload directives.

1. CHECKNEXT was used instead of CHECK-NEXT which caused the line to be
ignored which in turn hid the next 2 problems:
2. ('sh_offset', 0x{{{[0-9,a-f]+}}) had one too many leading curly braces and
failed to do it's job of accepting all hex digits and:
3. The check for the hex values for the code instructions didn't account for
blank separators.

This patch allows llvm to recognize that a 64 bit object file is being produced
and that the subsequently generated ELF header has the correct information.
The test case checks for both big and little endian flavors.

* Removed test/lib/llvm.exp - it is no longer needed
* Deleted the dg.exp reading code from test/lit.cfg. There are no dg.exp files
left in the test suite so this code is no longer required. test/lit.cfg is
now much shorter and clearer
* Removed a lot of duplicate code in lit.local.cfg files that need access to
the root configuration, by adding a "root" attribute to the TestingConfig
object. This attribute is dynamically computed to provide the same
information as was previously provided by the custom getRoot functions.
* Documented the config.root attribute in docs/CommandGuide/lit.pod

These changes allow us to compile big endian from the command line for 32 bit
Mips targets. This patch will result in code and data actually being produced
in the correct endianess.
