This patch adds powerpc64le Linux support. While the patch also adds
the matching powerpc64 bits, there are endian issues that need to be
sorted out.
The PowerPC LLVM changes for the swift ABI (eg returning three element
non-homogeneous aggregates) are still in the works, but a simple LLVM
fix to allow those aggregates results in swift passing all but 8
test cases.
- Remove free Swift functions for advance and distance and replace
them with protocol extension methods:
- advancedBy(n)
- advancedBy(n, limit:)
- distanceTo(end)
- Modernize the Index tests
- Use StdlibUnittest
- Test for custom implementation dispatch
Perf impact: No significant changes reported in the
Swift Performance Measurement Tool.

The standard library has grown significantly, and we need a new
directory structure that clearly reflects the role of the APIs, and
allows future growth.
See stdlib/{public,internal,private}/README.txt for more information.
