Implement an intrinsic for use lowering LDS variables to different
addresses from different kernels. This will allow kernels that cannot
reach an LDS variable to avoid wasting space for it.
There are a number of implicit arguments accessed by intrinsic already
so this implementation closely follows the existing handling. It is slightly
novel in that this SGPR is written by the kernel prologue.
It is necessary in the general case to put variables at different addresses
such that they can be compactly allocated and thus necessary for an
indirect function call to have some means of determining where a
given variable was allocated. Claiming an arbitrary SGPR into which
an integer can be written by the kernel, in this implementation based
on metadata associated with that kernel, which is then passed on to
indirect call sites is sufficient to determine the variable address.
The intent is to emit a __const array of LDS addresses and index into it.

If we know we we aren't using a component from the kernel, we can save
a few bit packing instructions.
We're still enabling the VGPR input to the kernel though.
