[AArch64] Add support for range prefetch intrinsic (#170490)
This patch adds support in Clang for the RPRFM instruction, by adding
the following intrinsics:
```
void __pldx_range(unsigned int *access_kind*, unsigned int retention_policy,
signed int length*, unsigned int count, signed int stride,
size_t reuse distance, void const *addr);
void __pld_range(unsigned int access_kind*, unsigned int retention_policy,
uint64_t metadata, void const *addr);
```
The `__ARM_PREFETCH_RANGE` macro can be used to test whether these
intrinsics are implemented. If the RPRFM instruction is not available, this
instruction is a NOP.
This implements the following ACLE proposal:

Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
