Non-allocatable Global Named Register
This patch implements global named registers in Clang, lowering to the just created intrinsics in LLVM (@llvm.read/write_register). A new type of LValue had to be created (Register), which just adds support to carry the metadata node containing the name of the register. Two new methods to emit loads and stores interoperate with another to emit the named metadata node. No guarantees are being made and only non-allocatable global variable named registers are being supported. Local named register support is unchanged. llvm-svn: 209149
