Alignment of an alloca in IR can be lower than the preferred alignment
on purpose, but this override essentially treats the preferred
alignment as the minimum alignment.
The patch changes this behavior to always use the specified
alignment. If alignment is not set explicitly in LLVM IR, it is set to
DL.getPrefTypeAlign(Ty) in computeAllocaDefaultAlign.
Tests are changed as well: explicit alignment is increased to match
the preferred alignment if it changes output, or omitted when it is
hard to determine the right value (e.g. for pointers, some structs, or
weird types).

mflr is kind of expensive on Power version smaller than 10, so we should
schedule the store for the mflr's def away from mflr.
In epilogue, the expensive mtlr has no user for its def, so it doesn't
matter that the load and the mtlr are back-to-back.

The LIT test cases were migrated with the script provided by
Nikita Popov. Due to the size of the change it is split into
several parts.

To store a byval parameter the existing code would store as many 8 byte elements
as was required to store the full size of the byval parameter.
For example, a paramter of size 16 would store two element of 8 bytes.
A paramter of size 12 would also store two elements of 8 bytes.
This would sometimes store too many bytes as the size of the paramter is not
always a factor of 8.
This patch fixes that issue and now byval paramters are stored with the correct
number of bytes.

Now we won't copy the byval parameter (bigger than 8 bytes) to
caller's parameter save area. Instead, we will only copy the
byval parameter when it can not be passed entirely in registers
which means we have to use parameter save area according to the
64 bit SVR4 ABI.
