Request for review (L): 6797305: Add LoadUB and LoadUI opcode class

[Tom Rodriguez]

Check out http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~never/address.  Ignore the cmpl  
changes as they are part of something else.  Basically the adlc  
assumes that there's a function called Address::make_raw defined  
somewhere which produces the appropriate thing.  Sparc doesn't really  
use Address the way that x86 does so it's less useful there, unless  
some more serious changes were made to the sparc assembler.  It's not  
that hard to cope without it on sparc.
