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.
