Qiu Chaofan fae0dfa642 [Clang] Add __ibm128 type to represent ppc_fp128
Currently, we have no front-end type for ppc_fp128 type in IR. PowerPC
target generates ppc_fp128 type from long double now, but there's option
(-mabi=(ieee|ibm)longdouble) to control it and we're going to do
transition from IBM extended double-double ppc_fp128 to IEEE fp128 in
the future.

This patch adds type __ibm128 which always represents ppc_fp128 in IR,
as what GCC did for that type. Without this type in Clang, compilation
will fail if compiling against future version of libstdcxx (which uses
__ibm128 in headers).

Although all operations in backend for __ibm128 is done by software,
only PowerPC enables support for it.

There's something not implemented in this commit, which can be done in
future ones:

- Literal suffix for __ibm128 type. w/W is suitable as GCC documented.
- __attribute__((mode(IF))) should be for __ibm128.
- Complex __ibm128 type.
