Previously when a packed struct, containing vector data types such as
uint16x8_t, is passed as a function argument, the alignment of the
struct used by the function caller and the alignment used by the callee
to load the argument from stack does not match.
This patch implements section 6.8.2, stage C.4 of the Procedure Call
Standard for the Arm 64-bit Architecture (AAPCS64): "If the argument is
an HFA, an HVA, a Quad-precision Floating-point or short vector type
then the NSAA is rounded up to the next multiple of 8 if its natural
alignment is ≤ 8 or the next multiple of 16 if its natural alignment
is ≥ 16." This ensures the alignments of the packed structs used as
function arguments are the same as described in the AAPCS64 for both
the caller and callee.

Partial progress towards replacing `CreateElementBitCast`, as it no
longer does what its name suggests. Either replace its uses with
`Address::withElementType()`, or remove them if no longer needed.

This commit breaks up CodeGen/TargetInfo.cpp into a set of *.cpp files,
one file per target. There are no functional changes, mostly just code moving.
Non-code-moving changes are:
* A virtual destructor has been added to DefaultABIInfo to pin the vtable to a cpp file.
* A few methods of ABIInfo and DefaultABIInfo were split into declaration + definition
in order to reduce the number of transitive includes.
* Several functions that used to be static have been placed in clang::CodeGen
namespace so that they can be accessed from other cpp files.
