Summary:
pickNodeBidirectional tried to compare the best top candidate and the
best bottom candidate by examining TopCand.Reason and BotCand.Reason.
This is unsound because, after calling pickNodeFromQueue, Cand.Reason
does not reflect the most important reason why Cand was chosen. Rather
it reflects the most recent reason why it beat some other potential
candidate, which could have been for some low priority tie breaker
reason.
I have seen this cause problems where TopCand is a good candidate, but
because TopCand.Reason is ORDER (which is very low priority) it is
repeatedly ignored in favour of a mediocre BotCand. This is not how
bidirectional scheduling is supposed to work.
To fix this I changed the code to always compare TopCand and BotCand
directly, like the generic implementation of pickNodeBidirectional does.
This removes some uncommented AMDGPU-specific logic; if this logic turns
out to be important then perhaps it could be moved into an override of
tryCandidate instead.
Graphics shader benchmarking on gfx10 shows a lot more positive than
negative effects from this change.

Summary:
Was looking into supporting `(srl (shl x, c1), c2)` with c1 != c2 in dagcombiner,
this test changes, but makes `update_llc_test_checks.py` unhappy.
**Many** AMDGPU tests specify `-march`, not `-mtriple`, which results in `update_llc_test_checks.py`
defaulting to x86 asm function detection heuristics, which don't work here.
I propose to fix this by adding an infrastructure to map from `-march` to `-mtriple`,
in the UpdateTestChecks tooling.

Currently the default C calling convention functions are treated
the same as compute kernels. Make this explicit so the default
calling convention can be changed to a non-kernel.
Converted with perl -pi -e 's/define void/define amdgpu_kernel void/'
on the relevant test directories (and undoing in one place that actually
wanted a non-kernel).
