[PowerPC] Refactor soft-float support, and enable PPC64 soft float
This change enables soft-float for PowerPC64, and also makes
soft-float disable all vector instruction sets for both 32-bit and
64-bit modes. This latter part is necessary because the PPC backend
canonicalizes many Altivec vector types to floating-point types, and
so soft-float breaks scalarization support for many operations. Both
for embedded targets and for operating-system kernels desiring
soft-float support, it seems reasonable that disabling hardware
floating-point also disables vector instructions (embedded targets
without hardware floating point support are unlikely to have Altivec,
etc. and operating system kernels desiring not to use floating-point
registers to lower syscall cost are unlikely to want to use vector
registers either). If someone needs this to work, we'll need to
change the fact that we promote many Altivec operations to act on
v4f32. To make it possible to disable Altivec when soft-float is
enabled, hardware floating-point support needs to be expressed as a
positive feature, like the others, and not a negative feature,
because target features cannot have dependencies on the disabling of
some other feature. So +soft-float has now become -hard-float.
Fixes PR26970.

[PowerPC] Enable soft-float for PPC64, and +soft-float -> -hard-float
Enable soft-float support on PPC64, as the backend now supports it.
Also, the backend now uses -hard-float instead of +soft-float, so set
the target features accordingly.
Fixes PR26970.

Allows Clang to use LLVM's fixes-x18 option
This patch allows clang to have llvm reserve the x18
platform register on AArch64. FreeBSD will use this in the kernel for
per-cpu data but has no need to reserve this register in userland so
will need this flag to reserve it.
This uses llvm r226664 to allow this register to be reserved.

Refactor the x86 CPU name logic in the driver and pass -march and -mcpu
flag information down from the Clang driver into the Gold linker plugin

should hopefully have it pass all the way through to the LTO optimizer.
Fixes PR14697.
Pull in r175919 from upstream clang trunk:
Driver: Pass down the -march setting down to -cc1as on x86 too.
The assembler historically didn't make use of any target features, but this has
changed when support for old CPUs that don't support long nops was added.
This should fix the long nops that still occurred in crt*.o, and
possibly other object files, if the system was compiled for a CPU that
does not support those, such as Geode.
Note that gcc on i386 also does not pass through any -march, -mcpu or
-mtune setting to gas, but this has not caused any trouble yet, because
gas defaults to i386.
