We currently emit up to 15-byte NOPs on all targets (apart from Silvermont), which stalls performance on some targets with decoders that struggle with 2 or 3 more '66' prefixes.
This patch flags recent AMD targets (btver1/znver1) to still emit 15-byte NOPs and bdver* targets to emit 11-byte NOPs. All other targets now emit 10-byte NOPs apart from SilverMont CPUs which still emit 7-byte NOPS.

Empty string should be equivalent to "generic" which doesn't allow NOPL. Force tests to use specificy 'pentiumpro' to guarantee NOPL.

This sort-of deprecates macho-dump. It may take still a little while
to garbage collect it, but at least there's no real usage of it in
the tree anymore. New tests should always rely on llvm-readobj or
llvm-objdump.

On Darwin, it is required to stamp the object file with VERSION_MIN load
command. This commit will provide a VERSRION_MIN load command to the
MachO file that doesn't specify the version itself by inferring from
Target Triple.
