Ties Stuij 2273741ea2 [ARM] generate armv6m eXecute Only (XO) code
[ARM] generate armv6m eXecute Only (XO) code for immediates, globals

Previously eXecute Only (XO) support was implemented for targets that support
MOVW/MOVT (~armv7+). See: https://reviews.llvm.org/D27449

XO prevents the compiler from generating data accesses to code sections. This
patch implements XO codegen for armv6-M, which does not support MOVW/MOVT, and
must resort to the following general pattern to avoid loads:

    movs    r3, :upper8_15:foo
    lsls    r3, #8
    adds    r3, :upper0_7:foo
    lsls    r3, #8
    adds    r3, :lower8_15:foo
    lsls    r3, #8
    adds    r3, :lower0_7:foo
    ldr     r3, [r3]

This is equivalent to the code pattern generated by GCC.

The above relocations are new to LLVM and have been implemented in a parent
patch: https://reviews.llvm.org/D149443.

This patch limits itself to implementing codegen for this pattern and enabling
XO for armv6-M in the backend.

Separate patches will follow for:
- switch tables
- replacing specific loads from constant islands which are spread out over the
  ARM backend codebase. Amongst others: FastISel, call lowering, stack frames.
