This will currently accept the old number of bytes syntax, and convert
it to a scalar. This should be removed in the near future (I think I
converted all of the tests already, but likely missed a few).
Not sure what the exact syntax and policy should be. We can continue
printing the number of bytes for non-generic instructions to avoid
test churn and only allow non-scalar types for generic instructions.
This will currently print the LLT in parentheses, but accept parsing
the existing integers and implicitly converting to scalar. The
parentheses are a bit ugly, but the parser logic seems unable to deal
without either parentheses or some keyword to indicate the start of a
type.
Summary:
In our CHERI fork we use BUNDLE instructions to ensure that a
three-instruction sequence to generate a program-counter-relative value is
emitted without reordering or insertions (since that would break the 32-bit
offset computation).
Currently MipsAsmPrinter asserts when it encounters a pseudo instruction.
To handle BUNDLE we can simply skip the instruction which will then make
EmitInstruction() process the contents of the bundle in order.

Summary:
In our CHERI fork we use BUNDLE instructions to ensure that a
three-instruction sequence to generate a program-counter-relative value is
emitted without reordering or insertions (since that would break the 32-bit
offset computation). This sequence is created in MipsExpandPseudo and we use
finalizeBundle() to create the BUNDLE instruction.
However, the delay slot filler currently breaks this pattern since the BUNDLE
will be removed and so all instructions are moved into the delay slot.
Since the delay slot only executes the first instruction, this results in
incorrect computations (and run-time crashes) if the branch is taken.
The original test cases uses CHERI instructions, so for the test case here
I simple filled a BUNDLE with a no-op DADDiu $sp_64, -16 and DADDiu $sp_64, 16.
