This will use the python that LLVM was configured to use rather than
python from PATH.

Use range instead of xrange whenever possible. The extra list creation in Python2
is generally not a performance bottleneck.

the `from __future__ import print_function` statement.

One unusual feature of the z architecture is that the result of a
previous load can be reused indefinitely for subsequent loads, even if
a cache-coherent store to that location is performed by another CPU.
A special serializing instruction must be used if you want to force
a load to be reattempted.
Since volatile loads are not supposed to be omitted in this way,
we should insert a serializing instruction before each such load.
The same goes for atomic loads.
The patch implements this at the IR->DAG boundary, in a similar way
to atomic fences. It is a no-op for targets other than SystemZ.

Before this change, the SystemZ backend would use BRCL for all branches
and only consider shortening them to BRC when generating an object file.
E.g. a branch on equal would use the JGE alias of BRCL in assembly output,
but might be shortened to the JE alias of BRC in ELF output. This was
a useful first step, but it had two problems:
(1) The z assembler isn't traditionally supposed to perform branch shortening
or branch relaxation. We followed this rule by not relaxing branches
in assembler input, but that meant that generating assembly code and
then assembling it would not produce the same result as going directly
to object code; the former would give long branches everywhere, whereas
the latter would use short branches where possible.
(2) Other useful branches, like COMPARE AND BRANCH, do not have long forms.
We would need to do something else before supporting them.
(Although COMPARE AND BRANCH does not change the condition codes,
the plan is to model COMPARE AND BRANCH as a CC-clobbering instruction
during codegen, so that we can safely lower it to a separate compare
and long branch where necessary. This is not a valid transformation
for the assembler proper to make.)
This patch therefore moves branch relaxation to a pre-emit pass.
For now, calls are still shortened from BRASL to BRAS by the assembler,
although this too is not really the traditional behaviour.
The first test takes about 1.5s to run, and there are likely to be
more tests in this vein once further branch types are added. The feeling
on IRC was that 1.5s is a bit much for a single test, so I've restricted
it to SystemZ hosts for now.
The patch exposes (and fixes) some typos in the main CodeGen/SystemZ tests.
A later patch will remove the {{g}}s from that directory.
