Daniel Sanders 03fe69e90d [mips] Add CCValAssign::[ASZ]ExtUpper and CCPromoteToUpperBitsInType and handle struct's correctly on big-endian N32/N64 return values.
Summary:
The N32/N64 ABI's require that structs passed in registers are laid out
such that spilling the register with 'sd' places the struct at the lowest
address. For little endian this is trivial but for big-endian it requires
that structs are shifted into the upper bits of the register.

We also require that structs passed in registers have the 'inreg'
attribute for big-endian N32/N64 to work correctly. This is because the
tablegen-erated calling convention implementation only has access to the
lowered form of struct arguments (one or more integers of up to 64-bits
each) and is unable to determine the original type.
