1. New parameter attribute called 'inreg'. It has meaning "place this
parameter in registers, if possible". This is some generalization of
gcc's regparm(n) attribute. It's currently used only in X86-32 backend.
2. Completely rewritten CC handling/lowering code inside X86 backend.
Merged stdcall + c CCs and fastcall + fast CC.
3. Dropped CSRET CC. We cannot add struct return variant for each
target-specific CC (e.g. stdcall + csretcc and so on).
4. Instead of CSRET CC introduced 'sret' parameter attribute. Setting in
on first attribute has meaning 'This is hidden pointer to structure
return. Handle it gently'.
5. Fixed small bug in llvm-extract + add new feature to
FunctionExtraction pass, which relinks all internal-linkaged callees
from deleted function to external linkage. This will allow further
linking everything together.
NOTEs: 1. Documentation will be updated soon.
2. llvm-upgrade should be improved to translate csret => sret.
Before this, there will be some unexpected test fails.

This is the final patch for this PR. It implements some minor cleanup
in the use of IntegerType, to wit:
1. Type::getIntegerTypeMask -> IntegerType::getBitMask
2. Type::Int*Ty changed to IntegerType* from Type*
3. ConstantInt::getType() returns IntegerType* now, not Type*
This also fixes PR1120.

that fit evenly within a natural integer type and those that don't.

rename Type::getIntegralTypeMask to Type::getIntegerTypeMask.
This makes naming much more consistent. For example, there are now no longer any
instances of IntegerType that are not considered isInteger! :)

Implement the arbitrary bit-width integer feature. The feature allows
integers of any bitwidth (up to 64) to be defined instead of just 1, 8,
16, 32, and 64 bit integers.
This change does several things:
1. Introduces a new Derived Type, IntegerType, to represent the number of
bits in an integer. The Type classes SubclassData field is used to
store the number of bits. This allows 2^23 bits in an integer type.
2. Removes the five integer Type::TypeID values for the 1, 8, 16, 32 and
64-bit integers. These are replaced with just IntegerType which is not
a primitive any more.
3. Adjust the rest of LLVM to account for this change.
Note that while this incremental change lays the foundation for arbitrary
bit-width integers, LLVM has not yet been converted to actually deal with
them in any significant way. Most optimization passes, for example, will
still only deal with the byte-width integer types. Future increments
will rectify this situation.

1. The @ sign is no longer necessary.
2. We now support "function attributes" as parameter attribute 0.
3. Instead of locating the return type attributes after the type of a
function result, they are now located after the function header's
closing paranthesis and before any alignment or section options.
4. The way has been prepared for a new "noreturn" function attribute but
there is no support for recognizing it in the lexer nor doing anything
with it if it does get set.
5. The FunctionType::getParamAttrsText method now has support for
returning multiple attributes. This required a change in its interface.
I'm unhappy that this change leads to 6 new shift/reduce conflicts, but
in each case bison's decision to choose the shift is correct so there
shouldn't be any damage from these conflicts.

The long awaited CAST patch. This introduces 12 new instructions into LLVM
to replace the cast instruction. Corresponding changes throughout LLVM are
provided. This passes llvm-test, llvm/test, and SPEC CPUINT2000 with the
exception of 175.vpr which fails only on a slight floating point output
difference.

This patch implements the first increment for the Signless Types feature.
All changes pertain to removing the ConstantSInt and ConstantUInt classes
in favor of just using ConstantInt.

type when it gets refined. This allows us to hash on this crucial value.
* Fix several issues in TypeMap::RefineAbstractType that prevent it from
handling hash values that change correctly.
* Define hashTypeStructure to not always return 0. :)
This last part (which depends on the first two) speeds up gccld time on eon
from 3.78s to 2.75s with a release build (a 28% speedup!). This resolves
PR474.

eon from 3.749 to 3.637s with a release build (about 3%).

explanation from IRC:
|sabre| I think it's an order of evaluation thing
|sabre| for me, the RHS of the assignment is evaluated first
|sabre| getTypeDescription checks to see if ConcreteTypeDescription[Ty] contains anything
|sabre| since it doesn't, it computes and returns the value
|sabre| this gets put into the map.
|sabre| For you, the LHS is evaluated first.
|sabre| Map[Ty] (aka ConcreteTypeDescriptions[Ty]) inserts an empty string into the map, returning a reference
|sabre| getTypeDesc then sees the empty string in the map
|sabre| and returns it
|sabre| bork :)
