This patch is to fix radar://8426430. It is about llvm support of __builtin_debugtrap()

which is supposed to consistently raise SIGTRAP across all systems. In contrast,
__builtin_trap() behave differently on different systems. e.g. it raises SIGTRAP on ARM, and
SIGILL on X86. The purpose of __builtin_debugtrap() is to consistently provide "trap"
functionality, in the mean time preserve the compatibility with on gcc on __builtin_trap().

  The X86 backend is already able to handle debugtrap(). This patch is to:
  1) make front-end recognize "__builtin_debugtrap()" (emboddied in the one-line change to Clang).
  2) In DAG legalization phase, by default, "debugtrap" will be replaced with "trap", which
     make the __builtin_debugtrap() "available" to all existing ports without the hassle of
     changing their code.
  3) If trap-function is specified (via -trap-func=xyz to llc), both __builtin_debugtrap() and
     __builtin_trap() will be expanded into the function call of the specified trap function.
    This behavior may need change in the future.

  The provided testing-case is to make sure 2) and 3) are working for ARM port, and we
already have a testing case for x86.
