Summary:
This patch enable assembly output of local commons for AIX using .lcomm
directives. Adds a EmitXCOFFLocalCommonSymbol to MCStreamer so we can emit the
AIX version of .lcomm assembly directives which include a csect name. Handle the
case of BSS locals in PPCAIXAsmPrinter by using EmitXCOFFLocalCommonSymbol. Adds
a test for generating .lcomm on AIX Targets.

Addresses number of comment made on D64652 after commiting:
- Reorders function decls in the TargetLoweringObjectFileXCOFF class.
- Fix comment in MCSectionXCOFF to include description of external reference
csects.
- Convert several llvm_unreachables to report_fatal_error
- Convert several dyn_casts to casts as they are expected not to fail.
- Avoid copying DataLayout object.

Stubs out a TargetLoweringObjectFileXCOFF class, implementing only
SelectSectionForGlobal for common symbols. Also adds an override of
EmitGlobalVariable in PPCAIXAsmPrinter which adds a number of defensive errors
and adds support for emitting common globals.

Stubs out a number of the classes needed to produce a new object file format
(XCOFF) for the powerpc-aix target. For testing input is an empty module which
produces an object file with just a file header.
