[PATCH] D13051: Add placeholder __libcpp_relaxed_store() for when atomic builtins are not available.

Does anything actually need this? This interface was never really meant to be complete, just want was needed.

GCC doesn't provide "_Atomic" and `<atomic>` isn't always fully available. This is a minimal subset of atomic functionality needed to support `std::shared_ptr` and `std::call_once` among other things. All new code should use std::atomic IMO. It's not meant to reinvent the wheel, It's meant to be a portable option for when there is no "wheel" already.

Does armv4 need lib calls for atomic operations on "unsigned long"?
