Alexandre Oliva c05ece92c6 introduce overridable clear_cache emitter
This patch introduces maybe_emit_call_builtin___clear_cache for the
builtin expander machinery and the trampoline initializers to use to
clear the instruction cache, removing a source of inconsistencies and
subtle errors in low-level machinery.

I've adjusted all trampoline_init implementations that used to issue
explicit calls to __clear_cache or similar to use this new primitive.


Specifically on vxworks targets, we needed to drop the __clear_cache
symbol in libgcc, for reasons related with linking that I didn't need
to understand, and we wanted to call cacheTextUpdate directly, despite
the different calling conventions: the second argument is a length
rather than the end address.

So I introduced a target hook to enable target OS-level overriding of
builtin __clear_cache call emission, retaining nearly (*) the same
logic to govern the decision on whether to emit a call (or nothing, or
a machine-dependent insn) but enabling a call to a target
system-defined function with different calling conventions to be
issued, without having to modify .md files of the various
architectures supported by the target system to introduce or modify
clear_cache insns.

(*) I write "nearly" mainly because, when not optimizing, we'd issue a
call regardless, but since the call may now be overridden, I added it
to the set of builtins that are not directly turned into calls when
not optimizing, following the normal expansion path instead.  It
wouldn't be hard to skip the emission of cache-clearing insns when not
optimizing, but it didn't seem very important, especially for the new
uses from trampoline init.

    Another difference that might be relevant is that now we expand
the begin and end arguments unconditionally.  This might make a
difference if they have side effects.  That's prettty much impossible
at expand time, but I thought I'd mention it.


I have NOT modified targets that did not issue cache-clearing calls in
trampoline init to use the new clear_cache-calling infrastructure even
if it would expand to nothing.  I have considered doing so, to have
__builtin___clear_cache and trampoline init call cacheTextUpdate on
all vxworks targets, but decided not to, since on targets that don't
do any cache clearing, cacheTextUpdate ought to be a no-op, even
though rs6000 seems to use icbi and dcbf instructions in the function
called to initialize a trampoline, but AFAICT not in the __clear_cache
builtin.  Hopefully target maintainers will have a look and take
advantage of this new piece of infrastructure to remove such
(apparent?) inconsistencies.  Not rs6000 and other that call asm-coded
trampoline setup instructions, for sure, but they might wish to
introduce a CLEAR_INSN_CACHE macro or a clear_cache expander if they
don't have one.
