This patch adds two new fields to the perf report generated by the SummaryView.
Fields are now logically organized into two small groups; only the second group
contains throughput indicators.
Example:
```
Iterations: 100
Instructions: 300
Total Cycles: 414
Total uOps: 700
Dispatch Width: 4
uOps Per Cycle: 1.69
IPC: 0.72
Block RThroughput: 4.0
```
This patch also updates the docs for llvm-mca.
Due to the nature of this change, several tests in the tools/llvm-mca directory
were affected, and had to be updated using script `update_mca_test_checks.py`.
llvm-svn: 340946
Summary:
It's super irritating.
[properly configured] git client then complains about that double-newline,
and you have to use `--force` to ignore the warning, since even if you
fix it manually, it will be reintroduced the very next runtime :/

Previously update_mca_test_checks worked entirely at "block" level where
a block is some sequence of lines delimited by at least one empty line.
This generally worked well, but could sometimes lead to excessive
repetition of check lines for various prefixes if some block was almost
identical between prefixes, but not quite (for example, due to a
different dispatch width in the otherwise identical summary views).
This new analyis attempts to split blocks further in the case where the
following conditions are met:
a) There is some prefix common to every RUN line (typically 'ALL').
b) The first line of the block is common to the output with every prefix.
c) The block has the same number of lines for the output with every prefix.
Also, regenerated all llvm-mca test files with the following command:
update_mca_test_checks.py "../test/tools/llvm-mca/*/*.s" "../test/tools/llvm-mca/*/*/*.s"
The new analysis showed a "multiple lines not disambiguated by prefixes" warning
for test "AArch64/Exynos/scheduler-queue-usage.s" so I've also added some
explicit prefixes to each of the RUN lines in that test.

This patch teaches llvm-mca how to parse code comments in search for special
"markers" used to select regions of code.
Example:
# LLVM-MCA-BEGIN My Code Region
....
# LLVM-MCA-END
The MCAsmLexer now delegates to an object of class MCACommentParser (i.e. an
AsmCommentConsumer) the parsing of code comments to search for begin/end code
region markers.
A comment starting with substring "LLVM-MCA-BEGIN" marks the beginning of a new
region of code. A comment starting with substring "LLVM-MCA-END" marks the end
of the last region.
This implementation doesn't allow regions to overlap. Each region can have a
optional description; internally, each region is identified by a range of source
code locations (SMLoc).
MCInst objects are added to a region R only if the source location for the
MCInst is in the range of locations specified by R.
By default, the tool allocates an implicit "Default" code region which contains
every source location. See new tests llvm-mca-marker-*.s for a few examples.
A new Backend object is created for every region. So, the analysis is conducted
on every parsed code region. The final report is the union of the reports
generated for every code region. Note that empty regions are skipped.
Special "[#] Code Region - ..." strings are used in the report to mark the
portion which is specific to a code region only. For example, see
llvm-mca-markers-5.s.
