Summary:
We compile user opencl kernel code with spir triple. But built-ins are written in OpenCL and we compile it with triple x86_64 to be able to use x86 intrinsics. And we need address spaces to match in both cases. So, we change fake address space map in OpenCL for matching with spir.
On CPU address spaces are not really important but we'd like to preserve address space information in order to perform optimizations relying on this info like enhanced alias analysis.

If AS of a variable/parameter declaration is not set by the source,
OpenCL v2.0 s6.5 defines explicit rules for default ASes:
- The AS of global and local static variables defaults to global;
- All pointers point to generic AS.

add support for the OpenCL __private, __local, __constant and
__global address spaces, as well as the __read_only, _read_write and
__write_only image access specifiers. Patch originally by ARM;
language-specific address space support by myself.
