Saleem Abdulrasool edbdd2e5df Canonicalise Windows target triple spellings
Construct a uniform Windows target triple nomenclature which is congruent to the
Linux counterpart.  The old triples are normalised to the new canonical form.
This cleans up the long-standing issue of odd naming for various Windows
environments.

There are four different environments on Windows:

MSVC: The MS ABI, MSVCRT environment as defined by Microsoft
GNU: The MinGW32/MinGW32-W64 environment which uses MSVCRT and auxiliary libraries
Itanium: The MSVCRT environment + libc++ built with Itanium ABI
Cygnus: The Cygwin environment which uses custom libraries for everything

The following spellings are now written as:

i686-pc-win32 => i686-pc-windows-msvc
i686-pc-mingw32 => i686-pc-windows-gnu
i686-pc-cygwin => i686-pc-windows-cygnus

This should be sufficiently flexible to allow us to target other windows
environments in the future as necessary.

Low Level Virtual Machine (LLVM)
================================

This directory and its subdirectories contain source code for the Low Level
Virtual Machine, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers,
optimizers, and runtime environments.

LLVM is open source software. You may freely distribute it under the terms of
the license agreement found in LICENSE.txt.

Please see the documentation provided in docs/ for further
assistance with LLVM, and in particular docs/GettingStarted.rst for getting
started with LLVM and docs/README.txt for an overview of LLVM's
documentation setup.

If you're writing a package for LLVM, see docs/Packaging.rst for our
suggestions.
