Chris Lattner 43b429b059 Refactor the machine code emitter interface to pull the pointers for the current
code emission location into the base class, instead of being in the derived classes.

This change means that low-level methods like emitByte/emitWord now are no longer
virtual (yaay for speed), and we now have a framework to support growable code
segments.  This implements feature request #1 of PR469.

/// Emission of machine code is complicated by the fact that we don't (in
/// general) know the size of the machine code that we're about to emit before
/// we emit it. As such, we preallocate a certain amount of memory, and set the
/// BufferBegin/BufferEnd pointers to the start and end of the buffer. As we
/// emit machine instructions, we advance the CurBufferPtr to indicate the
/// location of the next byte to emit. In the case of a buffer overflow (we
/// need to emit more machine code than we have allocated space for), the
/// CurBufferPtr will saturate to BufferEnd and ignore stores. Once the entire
/// function has been emitted, the overflow condition is checked, and if it has
/// occurred, more memory is allocated, and we reemit the code into it.
