`llc -march` is problematic because it only switches the target
architecture, but leaves the operating system unchanged. This
occasionally leads to indeterministic tests because the OS from
LLVM_DEFAULT_TARGET_TRIPLE is used.
However we can simply always use `llc -mtriple` instead. This changes
all the tests to do this to avoid people using -march when they copy and
paste parts of tests.
This patch:
- Removes -march if the .ll file already has a matching `target triple`
directive or -mtriple argument.
- In all other cases changes -march=ppc32/-march=ppc64 to
-mtriple=ppc32--/-mtriple=ppc64--

Currently we have a number of tests that fail with -verify-machineinstrs.
To detect this cases earlier we add the option to the testcases with the
exception of tests that will currently fail with this option. PR 27456 keeps
track of this failures.
No code review, as discussed with Hal Finkel.

Instead of using two feature bits, one to indicate the availability of the
popcnt[dw] instructions, and another to indicate whether or not they're fast,
use a single enum. This allows more consistent control via target attribute
strings, and via Clang's command line.

The A2 cores support the popcntw/popcntd instructions, but they're microcoded,
and slower than our default software emulation. Specifically, popcnt[dw] take
approximately 74 cycles, whereas our software emulation takes only 24-28
cycles.
I've added a new target feature to indicate a slow popcnt[dw], instead of just
removing the existing target feature from the a2/a2q processor models, because:
1. This allows us to return more accurate information via the TTI interface
(I recognize that this currently makes no practical difference)
2. Is hopefully easier to understand (it allows the core's features to match
its manual while still having the desired effect).

The popcntw instruction is available whenever the popcntd instruction is
available, and performs a separate popcnt on the lower and upper 32-bits.
Ignoring the high-order count, this can be used for the 32-bit input case
(saving on the explicit zero extension otherwise required to use popcntd).

PPC ISA 2.06 (P7, A2, etc.) has a popcntd instruction. Add this instruction and
tell TTI about it so that popcount-loop recognition will know about it.
