`llc -march` is problematic because it only switches the target
architecture, but leaves the operating system unchanged. This
occasionally leads to indeterministic tests because the OS from
LLVM_DEFAULT_TARGET_TRIPLE is used.
However we can simply always use `llc -mtriple` instead. This changes
all the tests to do this to avoid people using -march when they copy and
paste parts of tests.

These intrinsics currently have an explicit alignment argument which is
required to be a constant integer. It represents the alignment of the
source and dest, and so must be the minimum of those.
This change allows source and dest to each have their own alignments
by using the alignment attribute on their arguments. The alignment
argument itself is removed.
There are a few places in the code for which the code needs to be
checked by an expert as to whether using only src/dest alignment is
safe. For those places, they currently take the minimum of src/dest
alignments which matches the current behaviour.
For example, code which used to read:
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* %dest, i8* %src, i32 500, i32 8, i1 false)
will now read:
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i32(i8* align 8 %dest, i8* align 8 %src, i32 500, i1 false)
For out of tree owners, I was able to strip alignment from calls using sed by replacing:
(call.*llvm\.memset.*)i32\ [0-9]*\,\ i1 false\)
with:
$1i1 false)
and similarly for memmove and memcpy.
I then added back in alignment to test cases which needed it.
A similar commit will be made to clang which actually has many differences in alignment as now
IRBuilder can generate different source/dest alignments on calls.
In IRBuilder itself, a new argument was added. Instead of calling:
CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)
you now call
CreateMemCpy(Dst, Src, getInt64(Size), DstAlign, SrcAlign, /* isVolatile */ false)
There is a temporary class (IntegerAlignment) which takes the source alignment and rejects
implicit conversion from bool. This is to prevent isVolatile here from passing its default
parameter to the source alignment.
Note, changes in future can now be made to codegen. I didn't change anything here, but this
change should enable better memcpy code sequences.

This commit defines subtarget feature strict-align and uses it instead of
cl::opt -arm-strict-align to decide whether strict alignment should be
forced. Also, remove the logic that was checking the OS and architecture
as clang is now responsible for setting strict-align based on the command
line options specified and the target architecute and OS.

This is being disabled because it is no longer needed for
performance. It is only used by postRAscheduler which is also planned
for removal, and it is implemented with an out-dated view of register
liveness. It consideres aliases instead of register units, assumes
valid kill flags, and assumes implicit uses on partial register
defs. Kill flags and implicit operands are error prone and impossible
to verify. We should gradually eliminate dependence on them in the
postRA phases.
Targets that still benefit from this should move to the MI
scheduler. If that doesn't solve the problem, then we should add a
hook to regalloc to optimize reload placement.

Add support for trimming constants to GetDemandedBits. This fixes some funky
constant generation that occurs when stores are expanded for targets that don't
support unaligned stores natively.
