Summary RISC-V backend does not support PreserveMost calling convention

    The RISC-V backend currently does not support the `PreserveMost` calling convention. Attempting to compile code that uses it results in a fatal error:

> fatal error: error in backend: Unsupported calling convention

A minimal example can be seen on Compiler Explorer: 
https://godbolt.org/z/h7e5WT7eM

This issue raises a few questions:

* Should the RISC-V backend implement support for `PreserveMost`, similar to x86, ARM, and AArch64?
* Alternatively, should the frontend (or mid-end) automatically lower unsupported calling conventions like `PreserveMost` to a more compatible one such as `C`?

It would be helpful to clarify whether support is planned or if users should explicitly avoid using this calling convention on RISC-V targets.

Thanks!
