Basic inline assembly support for SPARC and SPARC64
This implements asm_experimental_arch (tracking issue https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/93335) for SPARC and SPARC64.
This PR includes:
- General-purpose registers `r[0-31]` (`reg` register class, LLVM/GCC constraint `r`)
Supported types: i8, i16, i32, i64 (SPARC64-only)
Aliases: `g[0-7]` (`r[0-7]`), `o[0-7]` (`r[8-15]`), `l[0-7]` (`r[16-23]`), `i[0-7]` (`r[24-31]`)
- `y` register (clobber-only, needed for clobber_abi)
- preserves_flags: Integer condition codes (`icc`, `xcc`) and floating-point condition codes (`fcc*`)
The following are *not* included:
- 64-bit integer support on SPARC-V8+'s global or out registers (`g[0-7]`, `o[0-7]`): GCC's `h` constraint (it seems that there is no corresponding constraint in LLVM?)
- Floating-point registers (LLVM/GCC constraint `e`/`f`):
I initially tried to implement this, but postponed it for now because there seemed to be several parts in LLVM that behaved differently than in the LangRef's description.
- clobber_abi: Support for floating-point registers is needed.
