Add ISD::FROUND for libm round()
All libm floating-point rounding functions, except for round(), had their own ISD nodes. Recent PowerPC cores have an instruction for round(), and so here I'm adding ISD::FROUND so that round() can be custom lowered as well. For the most part, this is straightforward. I've added an intrinsic and a matching ISD node just like those for nearbyint() and friends. The SelectionDAG pattern I've named frnd (because ISD::FP_ROUND has already claimed fround). This will be used by the PowerPC backend in a follow-up commit. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@187926 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

+Syntax:
+"""""""
+
+This is an overloaded intrinsic. You can use ``llvm.round`` on any
+floating point or vector of floating point type. Not all targets support
+all types however.
+
+::
+
+ declare float @llvm.round.f32(float %Val)
+ declare double @llvm.round.f64(double %Val)
+ declare x86_fp80 @llvm.round.f80(x86_fp80 %Val)

+Overview:

+The '``llvm.round.*``' intrinsics returns the operand rounded to the

+The argument and return value are floating point numbers of the same
