Extend the IL for selecting TLS models (PR9788)

This allows the user/front-end to specify a model that is better
than what LLVM would choose by default. For example, a variable
might be declared as

  @x = thread_local(initialexec) global i32 42

if it will not be used in a shared library that is dlopen'ed.

If the specified model isn't supported by the target, or if LLVM can
make a better choice, a different model may be used.
