This feature is needed in order to support shifts of more than 255 bits
on large integer types. This changes the syntax for llvm assembly to
make shl, ashr and lshr instructions look like a binary operator:
shl i32 %X, 1
instead of
shl i32 %X, i8 1
Additionally, this should help a few passes perform additional optimizations.

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.

things: (1) preventing PR1071 and (2) working around missing parameter
attributes for bool type. (2) will be fixed shortly. When PR1071 is fixed,
this patch should be undone.

1. Switch expression and cases are compared signed and are sign extended.
2. For function results needing extended, do SIGN_EXTEND if the SExtAttribute
is set and ZERO_EXTEND if the ZExtAttribute is set, otherwise just let
the Legalizer do ANY_EXTEND.
This fixes the recent regression in kimwitu++ and probably the llvm-gcc
bootstrap issue we had today.

Three changes:
1. Convert signed integer types to signless versions.
2. Implement the @sext and @zext parameter attributes. Previously the
type of an function parameter was used to determine whether it should
be sign extended or zero extended before the call. This information is
now communicated via the function type's parameter attributes.
3. The interface to LowerCallTo had to be changed in order to accommodate
the parameter attribute information. Although it would have been
convenient to pass in the FunctionType itself, there isn't always one
present in the caller. Consequently, a signedness indication for the
result type and for each parameter was provided for in the interface
to this method. All implementations were changed to make the adjustment
necessary.

This patch removes the SetCC instructions and replaces them with the ICmp
and FCmp instructions. The SetCondInst instruction has been removed and
been replaced with ICmpInst and FCmpInst.

by producing target constants instead of constants. Constants can get
selected to li/movri instructions, which causes the scheduler to explode.
