Introduce the type Cmm.exttype to precisely describe arguments to
external C functions, especially unboxed numerical arguments.
Annotate Cmm.Cextcall with the types of the arguments (Cmm.exttype list).
An empty list means "all arguments have default type XInt".
Annotate Mach.Iextcall with the type of the result (Cmm.machtype)
and the types of the arguments (Cmm.exttype list).
Change (slightly) the API for describing calling conventions in Proc:
- loc_external_arguments now takes a Cmm.exttype list,
in order to know more precisely the types of the arguments.
- loc_arguments, loc_parameters, loc_results, loc_external_results
now take a Cmm.machype instead of an array of pseudoregisters.
(Only the types of the pseudoregisters mattered anyway.)
Update the implementations of module Proc accordingly, in every port.
Introduce a new overridable method in Selectgen, insert_move_extcall_arg,
to produce the code that moves an argument of an external C function
to the locations returned by Proc.loc_external_arguments.
Revise the selection of external calls accordingly
(method emit_extcall_args in Selectgen).
