[Orc] New JIT APIs.

This patch adds a new set of JIT APIs to LLVM. The aim of these new APIs is to
cleanly support a wider range of JIT use cases in LLVM, and encourage the
development and contribution of re-usable infrastructure for LLVM JIT use-cases.

These APIs are intended to live alongside the MCJIT APIs, and should not affect
existing clients.

Included in this patch:

1) New headers in include/llvm/ExecutionEngine/Orc that provide a set of
   components for building JIT infrastructure.
   Implementation code for these headers lives in lib/ExecutionEngine/Orc.

2) A prototype re-implementation of MCJIT (OrcMCJITReplacement) built out of the
   new components.

3) Minor changes to RTDyldMemoryManager needed to support the new components.
   These changes should not impact existing clients.

4) A new flag for lli, -use-orcmcjit, which will cause lli to use the
   OrcMCJITReplacement class as its underlying execution engine, rather than
   MCJIT itself.

Tests to follow shortly.
