Allow sret on the second parameter as well as the first

Details

Summary

MSVC always places the implicit sret parameter after the implicit this
parameter of instance methods. We used to handle this for
x86_thiscallcc by allocating the sret parameter on the stack and leaving
the this pointer in ecx, but that doesn't handle alternative calling
conventions like cdecl, stdcall, fastcall, or the win64 convention.

Instead, change the verifier to allow sret on the second parameter.

This also requires changing the X86 backend to return the argument with
the sret parameter, instead of assuming that the sret parameter comes
first.

Erp, this was two patches smashed together.

We should assert I != E.

Why the loop? If the rest of the code assumes that it is the first or second, it seems better to check only those too, or at least assert that I is 0 or 1.

  • Fix issue where the first param is split and add tests

I looked for other backends that return sret parameters and found that mips and sparc do this. Mips can be updated to handle sret on parameters other than the first, but sparc has more assumptions about sret, so I stuck in a report_fatal_error call.

I realized this loop was wrong anyway if codegen split the first parameter into multiple EVTs, like i64 to 2 i32s on a 32-bit platform. I moved it up into the loop producing InVals and added a test for it.
