Add support for prefetch with locality levels.
This patch adds support for several new primitive operations which support using processor-specific instructions to help guide data and cache locality decisions. We have levels ranging from [0..3] For LLVM, we generate llvm.prefetch intrinsics at the proper locality level (similar to GCC.) For x86 we generate prefetch{NTA, t2, t1, t0} instructions. On SPARC and PowerPC, the locality levels are ignored. This closes #8256. Authored-by: Carter Tazio Schonwald <carter.schonwald@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Austin Seipp <austin@well-typed.com>
