Uday Bondhugula c0955edfd6 Introduce support for lib function aligned_alloc in TLI / memory builtins ...

Aligned_alloc is a standard lib function and has been in glibc since
2.16 and in the C11 standard. It has semantics similar to malloc/calloc
for several analyses/transforms. This patch introduces aligned_alloc
in target library info and memory builtins. Subsequent ones will
make other passes aware and fix https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44062

This change will also be useful to LLVM generators that need to allocate
buffers of vector elements larger than 16 bytes (for eg. 256-bit ones),
element boundary alignment for which is not typically provided by glibc malloc.
