[OpenMP][OpenACC] Implement `ompx_hold` map type modifier extension in Clang (1/2)

This patch implements Clang support for an original OpenMP extension
we have developed to support OpenACC: the `ompx_hold` map type
modifier.  The next patch in this series, D106510, implements OpenMP
runtime support.

Consider the following example:

```
 #pragma omp target data map(ompx_hold, tofrom: x) // holds onto mapping of x
 {
   foo(); // might have map(delete: x)
   #pragma omp target map(present, alloc: x) // x is guaranteed to be present
   printf("%d\n", x);
 }
```

The `ompx_hold` map type modifier above specifies that the `target
data` directive holds onto the mapping for `x` throughout the
associated region regardless of any `target exit data` directives
executed during the call to `foo`.  Thus, the presence assertion for
`x` at the enclosed `target` construct cannot fail.  (As usual, the
standard OpenMP reference count for `x` must also reach zero before
the data is unmapped.)
