I know we can query this information from clang, e.g. https://clang.llvm.org/doxygen/classclang_1_1TargetInfo.html#a01403a5106161d4d3cd0c50c43150f89, but I don't think there is an existing string in the data layout to encode this. Will I be adding a new format this? That would be a reasonably large change so I just want to make sure I'm on the right page.

For which target/architecture? What happens on other target/architectures?
