This pass:
1. Splits TargetMachine into TargetMachine (generic targets, can be implemented
any way, like the CBE) and LLVMTargetMachine (subclass of TM that is used by
things using libcodegen and other support).
2. Instead of having each target fully populate the passmgr for file or JIT
output, move all this to common code, and give targets hooks they can
implement.
3. Commonalize the target population stuff between file emission and JIT
emission.
4. All (native code) codegen stuff now happens in a FunctionPassManager, which
paves the way for "fast -O0" stuff in the CFE later, and now LLC could
lazily stream .bc files from disk to use less memory.
5. There are now many fewer #includes and the targets don't depend on the
scalar xforms or libanalysis anymore (but codegen does).
6. Changing common code generator pass ordering stuff no longer requires
touching all targets.
7. The JIT now has the option of "-fast" codegen or normal optimized codegen,
which is now orthogonal to the fact that JIT'ing is being done.

method.
- Added synchronizeICache() to TargetJITInfo. It is called after each block
of code is emitted to flush the icache. This ensures correct execution
on targets that have separate dcache and icache.
- Added PPC / Mac OS X specific code to do icache flushing.

manner that the LowerSwitch LLVM to LLVM pass does: emitting a binary
search tree of basic blocks. The new approach has several advantages:
it is faster, it generates significantly smaller code in many cases, and
it paves the way for implementing dense switch tables as a jump table by
handling switches directly in the instruction selector.
This functionality is currently only enabled on x86, but should be safe for
every target. In anticipation of making it the default, the cfg is now
properly updated in the x86, ppc, and sparc select lowering code.

dynamic-no-pic, and default.
PPC and x86 default is dynamic-no-pic for Darwin, pic for others.
- Removed options -enable-pic and -ppc-static.

Implement the X86 Subtarget.
This consolidates the checks for target triple, and setting options based
on target triple into one place. This allows us to convert the asm printer
and isel over from being littered with "forDarwin", "forCygwin", etc. into
just having the appropriate flags for each subtarget feature controlling
the code for that feature.
This patch also implements indirect external and weak references in the
X86 pattern isel, for darwin. Next up is to convert over the asm printers
to use this new interface.

XMM registers. There are many known deficiencies and fixmes, which will be
addressed ASAP. The major benefit of this work is that it will allow the
LLVM register allocator to allocate FP registers across basic blocks.
The x86 backend will still default to x87 style FP. To enable this work,
you must pass -enable-sse-scalar-fp and either -sse2 or -sse3 to llc.
An example before and after would be for:
double foo(double *P) { double Sum = 0; int i; for (i = 0; i < 1000; ++i)
Sum += P[i]; return Sum; }
The inner loop looks like the following:
x87:
.LBB_foo_1: # no_exit
fldl (%esp)
faddl (%eax,%ecx,8)
fstpl (%esp)
incl %ecx
cmpl $1000, %ecx
#FP_REG_KILL
jne .LBB_foo_1 # no_exit
SSE2:
addsd (%eax,%ecx,8), %xmm0
incl %ecx
cmpl $1000, %ecx
#FP_REG_KILL
jne .LBB_foo_1 # no_exit

currently use: llc t.bc --filetype=obj
This will produce a t.o file which is dumpable with readelf. Currently
the file produced is empty, but the scaffolding to do more is now in place.
