Summary:
The backend has no reason to behave like a driver and should generally do
as it's told (and error out if it can't) instead of trying to figure out
what the API user meant. The default ABI is still derived from the arch
component as a concession to backwards compatibility.
API-users that previously passed an explicit CPU and a triple that was
inconsistent with the CPU (e.g. mips-linux-gnu and mips64r2) may get a
different ABI to what they got before. However, it's expected that there
are no such users on the basis that CodeGen has been asserting that the
triple is consistent with the selected ABI for several releases. API-users
that were consistent or passed '' or 'generic' as the CPU will see no
difference.

Summary:
Adds MIPS32r6/MIPS64r6 and checks the compatibility requirements for these
processors.
I've also included comments to describe removed and re-encoded instructions,
along with placeholder def's for the new instructions but there are no
functional changes to codegen at this point.
