This implements the 'landingpad' instruction. It's used to indicate that a basic
block is a landing pad. There are several restrictions on its use (see
LangRef.html for more detail). These restrictions allow the exception handling
code to gather the information it needs in a much more sane way.
This patch has the definition, implementation, C interface, parsing, and bitcode
support in it.

This adds the 'resume' instruction class, IR parsing, and bitcode reading and
writing. The 'resume' instruction resumes propagation of an existing (in-flight)
exception whose unwinding was interrupted with a 'landingpad' instruction (to be
added later).

'atomicrmw' instructions, which allow representing all the current atomic
rmw intrinsics.
The allowed operands for these instructions are heavily restricted at the
moment; we can probably loosen it a bit, but supporting general
first-class types (where it makes sense) might get a bit complicated,
given how SelectionDAG works.
As an initial cut, these operations do not support specifying an alignment,
but it would be possible to add if we think it's useful. Specifying an
alignment lower than the natural alignment would be essentially
impossible to support on anything other than x86, but specifying a greater
alignment would be possible. I can't think of any useful optimizations which
would use that information, but maybe someone else has ideas.
Optimizer/codegen support coming soon.

(including compilation, assembly). Move relocation model Reloc::Model from
TargetMachine to MCCodeGenInfo so it's accessible even without TargetMachine.

patch brings numerous advantages to LLVM. One way to look at it
is through diffstat:
109 files changed, 3005 insertions(+), 5906 deletions(-)
Removing almost 3K lines of code is a good thing. Other advantages
include:
1. Value::getType() is a simple load that can be CSE'd, not a mutating
union-find operation.
2. Types a uniqued and never move once created, defining away PATypeHolder.
3. Structs can be "named" now, and their name is part of the identity that
uniques them. This means that the compiler doesn't merge them structurally
which makes the IR much less confusing.
4. Now that there is no way to get a cycle in a type graph without a named
struct type, "upreferences" go away.
5. Type refinement is completely gone, which should make LTO much MUCH faster
in some common cases with C++ code.
6. Types are now generally immutable, so we can use "Type *" instead
"const Type *" everywhere.
Downsides of this patch are that it removes some functions from the C API,
so people using those will have to upgrade to (not yet added) new API.
"LLVM 3.0" is the right time to do this.
There are still some cleanups pending after this, this patch is large enough
as-is.

disassembler API. Hooked this up to the ARM target so such tools as Darwin's
otool(1) can now print things like branch targets for example this:
blx _puts
instead of this:
blx #-36
And even print the expression encoded in the Mach-O relocation entried for
things like this:
movt r0, :upper16:((_foo-_bar)+1234)

otool(1), this time with the needed fix for case sensitive file systems :) .
This is a work in progress as the interface for producing symbolic operands is
not done. But a hacked prototype using information from the object file's
relocation entiries and replacing immediate operands with MCExpr's has been
shown to work with no changes to the instrucion printer. These APIs will be
moved into a dynamic library at some point.
