This makes it possible for targets to define their own MCObjectFileInfo.
This MCObjectFileInfo is then used to determine things like section alignment.
This is a follow up to D101462 and prepares for the RISCV backend defining the
text section alignment depending on the enabled extensions.

This untangles the MCContext and the MCObjectFileInfo. There is a circular
dependency between MCContext and MCObjectFileInfo. Currently this dependency
also exists during construction: You can't contruct a MOFI without a MCContext
without constructing the MCContext with a dummy version of that MOFI first.
This removes this dependency during construction. In a perfect world,
MCObjectFileInfo wouldn't depend on MCContext at all, but only be stored in the
MCContext, like other MC information. This is future work.
This also shifts/adds more information to the MCContext making it more
available to the different targets. Namely:
- TargetTriple
- ObjectFileType
- SubtargetInfo

As discussed on the mailing list, I plan to introduce an ml-compatible MASM assembler as part of providing more of the Windows build tools. This will be similar to llvm-mc, but with different command-line parameters.
This placeholder is purely a stripped-down version of llvm-mc; we'll eventually add support for the Microsoft-style command-line flags, and back it with a MASM parser.
Relanding this revision after fixing ARM-compatibility issues.
