Since the ARM constant pool handling supercedes the standard LLVM constant
pool entirely, the JIT emitter does not allocate space for the constants,
nor initialize the memory. The constant pool is considered part of the
instruction stream.
Likewise, when resolving relocations into the constant pool, a hook into
the target back end is used to resolve from the constant ID# to the
address where the constant is stored.
For now, the support in the ARM emitter is limited to 32-bit integer. Future
patches will expand this to the full range of constants necessary.

that it is cheap and efficient to get.
Move a variety of predicates from TargetInstrInfo into
TargetInstrDescriptor, which makes it much easier to query a predicate
when you don't have TII around. Now you can use MI->getDesc()->isBranch()
instead of going through TII, and this is much more efficient anyway. Not
all of the predicates have been moved over yet.
Update old code that used MI->getInstrDescriptor()->Flags to use the
new predicates in many places.

e.g. MO.isMBB() instead of MO.isMachineBasicBlock(). I don't plan on
switching everything over, so new clients should just start using the
shorter names.
Remove old long accessors, switching everything over to use the short
accessor: getMachineBasicBlock() -> getMBB(),
getConstantPoolIndex() -> getIndex(), setMachineBasicBlock -> setMBB(), etc.
