I'd misunderstood getIndirect() to mean that the argument should be passed
as a pointer at the ABI level, with the ByVal argument choosing caller-copy
semantics over no-caller-copy (callee-copy-on-write) semantics. But
getIndirect(x) actually means that x is passed by pointer at the IR
level but (at least on all other targets I looked at) directly at the
ABI level. getIndirect(x, false) selects a pointer to a caller-made
copy, which is what SystemZ was aiming for.
This fixes a miscompilation of c-index-test. Structure arguments were being
passed by pointer, but no copy was being made, so a write in the callee
stomped over a caller's local variable.

This patch then adds all the usual platform-specific pieces for SystemZ:
driver support, basic target info, register names and constraints,
ABI info and vararg support. It also adds new tests to verify pre-defined
macros and inline asm, and updates a test for the minimum alignment change.
This version of the patch incorporates feedback from reviews by
Eric Christopher and John McCall. Thanks to all reviewers!
