Summary:
Allow rN registers to be simply parsed as correspoing xN registers.
The "register ... asm("rN")" is an command to the
compiler's register allocator, not an operand to any individual assembly
instruction. GCC documents this syntax as "...the name of the register
that should be used."
This is needed to support the changes in Linux kernel (see
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/1/268 )
Note: This will add support only for the limited use case of
register ... asm("rN"). Any other uses that make rN leak into assembly
are not supported.

A few (mostly CodeGen) parts of Clang were tightly coupled to the
AArch64 backend. Now that it's gone, they will not even compile.
I've also deduplicated RUN lines in many of the AArch64 tests. This
might improve "make check-all" time noticably: some of those NEON
tests were monsters.

In cooperation with the LLVM patch, this should implement all scalar front-end
parts of the C and C++ ABIs for AArch64.
This patch excludes the NEON support also reviewed due to an outbreak of
batshit insanity in our legal department. That will be committed soon bringing
the changes to precisely what has been approved.
Further reviews would be gratefully received.
