Some abis, like the riscv one, treat
arguments differently depending on
whether they are variadic or not.
To prepare for the upcomming riscv
target, we change the variadic call
syntax and give meaning to the
location of the '...' marker.
# new syntax
%ret =w call $f(w %regular, ..., w %variadic)
By nature of their abis, the change
is backwards compatible for existing
targets.

They are now linear and can be
safely used with arguments that
have side-effects. This patch
also introduces an iscall()
macro and uses it to fix a
missing check for Ovacall in
liveness analysis.

Before this commit, I tried to make sure that
two interfering temporaries never ended up in
the same phi class.
This was to make sure that their register hints
were not counterproductively stepping on each
other's toes. The idea is fine, but:
* the implementation is clumsy because it
mixes the orthogonal concepts of
(i) interference and (ii) phi classes;
* the hinting process in the register
allocator is hard to understand because
the disjoint-set data structure used for
phi classes is cut in arbitrary places.
After this commit, the phi classes *really* are
phi classes represented with a proper disjoint-set
data structure.

This big diff does multiple changes to allow
the addition of new targets to qbe. The
changes are listed below in decreasing order
of impact.
1. Add a new Target structure.
To add support for a given target, one has to
implement all the members of the Target
structure. All the source files where changed
to use this interface where needed.
2. Single out amd64-specific code.
In this commit, the amd64 target T_amd64_sysv
is the only target available, it is implemented
in the amd64/ directory. All the non-static
items in this directory are prefixed with either
amd64_ or amd64_sysv (for items that are
specific to the System V ABI).
3. Centralize Ops information.
There is now a file 'ops.h' that must be used to
store all the available operations together with
their metadata. The various targets will only
select what they need; but it is beneficial that
there is only *one* place to change to add a new
instruction.
One good side effect of this change is that any
operation 'xyz' in the IL now as a corresponding
'Oxyz' in the code.
4. Misc fixes.
One notable change is that instruction selection
now generates generic comparison operations and
the lowering to the target's comparisons is done
in the emitter.
GAS directives for data are the same for many
targets, so data emission was extracted in a
file 'gas.c'.
5. Modularize the Makefile.
The Makefile now has a list of C files that
are target-independent (SRC), and one list
of C files per target. Each target can also
use its own 'all.h' header (for example to
define registers).

If on of the phis in a block A uses the result
of another one when coming from B, we have to
be careful!

int is used all over the place for temporaries,
maybe this should be changed, I don't know.
Another thing to consider is that temporaries
are currently on 12 bits (and will be on 29
or 30 bits in the future), so int will always be
safe to store them. We just loose the free
invariant of non-negativity.
