Tobias Grosser 6217e18a7d Add preliminary implementation for GPGPU code generation.
Translate the selected parallel loop body into a ptx string and run it with the
cuda driver API. We limit this preliminary implementation to target the
following special test cases:

  - Support only 2-dimensional parallel loops with or without only one innermost
    non-parallel loop.
  - Support write memory access to only one array in a SCoP.

The patch was committed with smaller changes to the build system:

There is now a flag to enable gpu code generation explictly. This was required
as we need the llvm.codegen() patch applied on the llvm sources, to compile this
feature correctly. Also, enabling gpu code generation does not require cuda.
This requirement was removed to allow 'make polly-test' runs, even without an
installed cuda runtime.

Polly - Polyhedral optimizations for LLVM

Polly uses a mathematical representation, the polyhedral model, to represent and
transform loops and other control flow structures. Using an abstract
representation it is possible to reason about transformations in a more general
way and to use highly optimized linear programming libraries to figure out the
optimal loop structure. These transformations can be used to do constant
propagation through arrays, remove dead loop iterations, optimize loops for
cache locality, optimize arrays, apply advanced automatic parallelization, drive
vectorization, or they can be used to do software pipelining.
