amd64 lacks instruction for this so it has to be implemented with
float -> signed casts. The approach is borrowed from llvm.

amd64 lacks an instruction for this so it has to be implemented with
signed -> float casts:
- Word casting is done by zero-extending the word to a long and then doing
a regular signed cast.
- Long casting is done by dividing by two with correct rounding if the
highest bit is set and casting that to float, then adding
1 to mantissa with integer addition

Necessary for floating-point negation, because
`%result = sub 0, %operand` doesn't give the correct sign for 0/-0.

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.

Since the environment can only be of type `l`, do
not require to write it down.
I also tightened the type information of the `pare`
and `arge` instructions.

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).
