The first try (r238051) to land this was reverted due to ExecutionEngine build failure;
that was hopefully addressed by r238788.
The second try (r238842) to land this was reverted due to BUILD_SHARED_LIBS failure;
that was hopefully addressed by r238953.
This patch adds a TargetRecip class for processing many recip codegen possibilities.
The class is intended to handle both command-line options to llc as well
as options passed in from a front-end such as clang with the -mrecip option.
The x86 backend is updated to use the new functionality.
Only -mcpu=btver2 with -ffast-math should see a functional change from this patch.
All other x86 CPUs continue to *not* use reciprocal estimates by default with -ffast-math.

This is a first step for generating SSE rsqrt instructions for
reciprocal square root calcs when fast-math is allowed.
For now, be conservative and only enable this for AMD btver2
where performance improves significantly - for example, 29%
on llvm/projects/test-suite/SingleSource/Benchmarks/BenchmarkGame/n-body.c
(if we convert the data type to single-precision float).
This patch adds a two constant version of the Newton-Raphson
refinement algorithm to DAGCombiner that can be selected by any target
via a parameter returned by getRsqrtEstimate()..

When -ffast-math is in effect (on Linux, at least), clang defines
__FINITE_MATH_ONLY__ > 0 when including <math.h>. This causes the
preprocessor to include <bits/math-finite.h>, which renames the sqrt functions.
For instance, "sqrt" is renamed as "__sqrt_finite".
This patch adds the 3 new names in such a way that they will be treated
as equivalent to their respective original names.
