Implement new CLZ and CTZ primops (re #9340)
This implements the new primops
clz#, clz32#, clz64#,
ctz#, ctz32#, ctz64#
which provide efficient implementations of the popular
count-leading-zero and count-trailing-zero respectively
(see testcase for a pure Haskell reference implementation).
On x86, NCG as well as LLVM generates code based on the BSF/BSR
instructions (which need extra logic to make the 0-case well-defined).
Test Plan: validate and succesful tests on i686 and amd64
