Dispose llvm::TargetMachines prior to llvm::Context being disposed

If the TargetMachine is disposed after the Context is disposed, it can
lead to use after frees in some cases.

I've observed this happening occasionally on code compiled for
aarch64-pc-windows-msvc using `-Zstack-protector=strong` but other users
have reported AVs from host aarch64-pc-windows-msvc compilers as well.
