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.

* Introduce new option to output zero-initialized data to .bss section.
This can reduce size of binaries. Enable it by default for ELF &
Cygwin/Mingw targets. Probably, Darwin should be also added.

use to write things to the file. It's abstract so each target should implement
its own version for each writer type.

LLVM would miscompile ASM dialects when compiling for PPC. Added dialects for
the X86 and PPC backends. It defaults to "0", the first variant of a compound
inline asm expression.

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.

- Add isSelectExpensive() etc. It's used to tell codegen that select is expensive for a given target, avoid using it if possible. Currently it's only
used to expand FCOPYSIGN.

to MRegisterInfo. These allow the target to issue instructions to spill and
restore callee saved registers in case where individual stores / loads aren't
the correct / profitable choice.

rework the hacks that had us passing OStream in. We pass in std::ostream*
instead, check for null, and then dispatch to the correct print() method.
