Adds support to AArch64FrameLowering to allocate fixed-stack SVE objects.
The focus of this patch is purely to allow the stack frame to
allocate/deallocate space for scalable SVE objects. More dynamic
allocation (at compile-time, i.e. determining placement of SVE objects
on the stack), or resolving frame-index references that include
scalable-sized offsets, are left for subsequent patches.
SVE objects are allocated in the stack frame as a separate region below
the callee-save area, and above the alignment gap. This is done so that
the SVE objects can be accessed directly from the FP at (runtime)
VL-based offsets to benefit from using the VL-scaled addressing modes.
The layout looks as follows:
+-------------+
| stack arg |
+-------------+
| Callee Saves|
| X29, X30 | (if available)
|-------------| <- FP (if available)
| : |
| SVE area |
| : |
+-------------+
|/////////////| alignment gap.
| : |
| Stack objs |
| : |
+-------------+ <- SP after call and frame-setup
SVE and non-SVE stack objects are distinguished using different
StackIDs. The offsets for objects with TargetStackID::SVEVector should be
interpreted as purely scalable offsets within their respective SVE region.

To support spilling/filling of scalable vectors we need a more generic
representation of a stack offset than simply 'int'.
For this we introduce the StackOffset struct, which comprises multiple
offsets sized by their respective MVTs. Byte-offsets will thus be a simple
tuple such as { offset, MVT::i8 }. Adding two byte-offsets will result in a
byte offset { offsetA + offsetB, MVT::i8 }. When two offsets have different
types, we can canonicalise them to use the same MVT, as long as their
runtime sizes are guaranteed to have the same size-ratio as they would have
at compile-time.
When we have both scalable- and fixed-size objects on the stack, we can
create an offset that is:
({ offset_fixed, MVT::i8 } + { offset_scalable, MVT::nxv1i8 })
The struct also contains a getForFrameOffset() method that is specific to
AArch64 and decomposes the frame-offset to be used directly in instructions
that operate on the stack or index into the stack.
Note: This patch adds StackOffset as an AArch64-only concept, but we would
like to make this a generic concept/struct that is supported by all
interfaces that take or return stack offsets (currently as 'int'). Since
that would be a bigger change that is currently pending on D32530 landing,
we thought it makes sense to first show/prove the concept in the AArch64
target before proposing to roll this out further.
