Aaron,

I've added short descriptions for most LLVM back-ends, with the files
they create, what's in them and who uses them.

http://llvm.org/docs/TableGen/BackEnds.html

I did this by scanning the build logs, inc files and greping them in
the cpp/h files in lib/Target. There is no information at all on the
intention of each back-end, but not all of them need it. Feel free to
add more stuff to the LLVM, and if you know about the Clang part,
please complete it. ;)

Once that's reasonably complete, we should change the link in the
index to TableGen/index.html and remove TableGenFundamentals.html.

cheers,
