Ulrich Weigand f2968d58cb [SystemZ] Add support for IBM z14 processor (3/3)
This adds support for the new 128-bit vector float instructions of z14.
Note that these instructions actually only operate on the f128 type,
since only each 128-bit vector register can hold only one 128-bit
float value.  However, this is still preferable to the legacy 128-bit
float instructions, since those operate on pairs of floating-point
registers (so we can hold at most 8 values in registers), while the
new instructions use single vector registers (so we hold up to 32
value in registers).

Adding support includes:
- Enabling the instructions for the assembler/disassembler.
- CodeGen for the instructions.  This includes allocating the f128
  type now to the VR128BitRegClass instead of FP128BitRegClass.
- Scheduler description support for the instructions.

Note that for a small number of operations, we have no new vector
instructions (like integer <-> 128-bit float conversions), and so
we use the legacy instruction and then reformat the operand
(i.e. copy between a pair of floating-point registers and a
vector register).
