pair instead of from a virtual method on TargetMachine. This cuts the final
ties of TargetAsmInfo to TargetMachine, meaning that MC can now use
TargetAsmInfo.

2. Move section switch printing to MCSection virtual method which takes a
TAI. This eliminates textual formatting stuff from TLOF.
3. Eliminate SwitchToSectionDirective, getSectionFlagsAsString, and
TLOFELF::AtIsCommentChar.

it is highly specific to the object file that will be generated in the end,
this introduces a new TargetLoweringObjectFile interface that is implemented
for each of ELF/MachO/COFF/Alpha/PIC16 and XCore.
Though still is still a brutal and ugly refactoring, this is a major step
towards goodness.
This patch also:
1. fixes a bunch of dangling pointer problems in the PIC16 backend.
2. disables the TargetLowering copy ctor which PIC16 was accidentally using.
3. gets us closer to xcore having its own crazy target section flags and
pic16 not having to shadow sections with its own objects.
4. fixes wierdness where ELF targets would set CStringSection but not
CStringSection_. Factor the code better.
5. fixes some bugs in string lowering on ELF targets.

PIC16 has special naming conventions for variables having section names specified via section attribute.

1. Spell SectionFlags::Writeable as "Writable".
2. Add predicates for deriving SectionFlags from SectionKinds.
3. Sink ELF-specific getSectionPrefixForUniqueGlobal impl into
ELFTargetAsmInfo.
4. Fix SectionFlagsForGlobal to know that BSS/ThreadBSS has the
BSS bit set (the real fix for PR4619).
5. Fix isSuitableForBSS to not put globals with explicit sections
set in BSS (which was the reason #4 wasn't fixed earlier).
6. Remove my previous hack for PR4619.

Implement _section macro to allow users to place objects in specific sections.
Implement _address macro to allow users to place objects at a particular address.
Placing objects at a memory address:
crate a unique section name from varname, address, object type and put that section at specified address. Mark this section a full (size = banksize) so that other objects do not compete for it while placing objects to sections in AsmPrinter.

A brief description about PIC16:
===============================
PIC16 is an 8-bit microcontroller with only one 8-bit register which is the
accumulator. All arithmetic/load/store operations are 8-bit only.
The architecture has two address spaces: program and data. The program memory
is divided into 2K pages and the data memory is divided into banks of 128 byte, with only 80 usable bytes, resulting in an non-contiguous data memory.
It supports direct data memory access (by specifying the address as part of the instruction) and indirect data and program memory access (in an unorthodox fashion which utilize a 16 bit pointer register).
Two classes of registers exist: (8-bit class which is only one
accumulator) (16-bit class, which contains one or more 16 bit
pointer(s))
