Initial version of the proposed patch.

This patch uses the proposed compiler builtin `__nth_element` [1] to implement
`std::tuple_element` whenever possible. This results in interesting
compile-time speedups over the current implementation of `std::tuple_element`,
as explained in this blog post [2].

If there is interest for this patch both from Clang's side and libc++'s side, I
will update this patch after the review is done on Clang's side and merged into
Clang.
