I didn't want to go throught the pain of MesaIR -> TGSI or TGSI-> MesaIR.
But if some one want to go through such things why not, only thing i want
to keep is r600_asm* stuff.

I have a start of a cleaner compiler that depend on those and i would like
to share this layer as it gives me 2 means to test it.
