attribute. It is a variation of the x86_64 ABI:
* A struct returned indirectly uses the first register argument to pass the
pointer.
* Floats, Doubles and structs containing only one of them are not passed in
registers.
* Other structs are split into registers if they fit on the remaining ones.
Otherwise they are passed in memory.
* When a struct doesn't fit it still consumes the registers.

values:
- Return integer vectors in integer registers.
- Pass vector arguments in integer registers.
- Set an upper bound for argument alignment. The largest alignment is 8-byte
for O32 and 16-byte for N32/64.

In addition, I've made the pointer and reference typedef 'void' rather than T*
just so they can't get misused. I would've omitted them entirely but
std::distance likes them to be there even if it doesn't use them.
This rolls back r155808 and r155869.

A vector should be returned via the hidden pointer argument except if its size
is equal to or smaller than 16-bytes and the target ABI is N32 or N64.

filter_decl_iterator had a weird mismatch where both op* and op-> returned T*
making it difficult to generalize this filtering behavior into a reusable
library of any kind.
This change errs on the side of value, making op-> return T* and op* return
T&.

- We do this when it is easy to determine that the backend will pass them on
the stack properly by itself.
Currently LLVM codegen is really bad in some cases with byval, for example, on
the test case here (which is derived from Sema code, which likes to pass
SourceLocations around)::
struct s47 { unsigned a; };
void f47(int,int,int,int,int,int,struct s47);
void test47(int a, struct s47 b) { f47(a, a, a, a, a, a, b); }
we used to emit code like this::
...
movl %esi, -8(%rbp)
movl -8(%rbp), %ecx
movl %ecx, (%rsp)
...
to handle moving the struct onto the stack, which is just appalling.
Now we generate::
movl %esi, (%rsp)
which seems better, no?

optional argument passed through the variadic ellipsis)
potentially affects how we need to lower it. Propagate
this information down to the various getFunctionInfo(...)
overloads on CodeGenTypes. Furthermore, rename those
overloads to clarify their distinct purposes, and make
sure we're calling the right one in the right place.
This has a nice side-effect of making it easier to construct
a function type, since the 'variadic' bit is no longer
separable.
This shouldn't really change anything for our existing
platforms, with one minor exception --- we should now call
variadic ObjC methods with the ... in the "right place"
(see the test case), which I guess matters for anyone
running GNUStep on MIPS. Mostly it's just a substantial
clean-up.

Also use this to do a better job of selecting soft FP settings.

is inserted before the real argument. Padding is needed to ensure the backend
reads from or writes to the correct argument slots when the original alignment
of a byval structure is unavailable due to flattening.
