Summary:
Reported in https://github.com/opencv/opencv/issues/15413.
We have serveral extended mnemonics for Move To/From Vector-Scalar Register Instructions
eg: mffprd,mtfprd etc.
We only support one of them, this patch add the others.

When switched to the MI scheduler for P9, the hardware is modeled as out of order.
However, inside the MI Scheduler algorithm, we still use the in-order scheduling model
as the MicroOpBufferSize isn't set. The MI scheduler take it as the hw cannot buffer
the op. So, only when all the available instructions issued, the pending instruction
could be scheduled. That is not true for our P9 hw in fact.
This patch is trying to enable the Out-of-Order scheduling model. The buffer size 44 is
picked from the P9 hw spec, and the perf test indicate that, its value won't hurt the cpu2017.
With this patch, there are 3 specs improved over 3% and 1 spec deg over 3%. The detail is as follows:
x264_r: +6.95%
cactuBSSN_r: +6.94%
lbm_r: +4.11%
xz_r: -3.85%
And the GEOMEAN for all the C/C++ spec in spec2017 is about 0.18% improved.

Added
__builtin_vsx_scalar_extract_expq
__builtin_vsx_scalar_insert_exp_qp
Builtins should behave the same way as in GCC.

This patch will address using the xscpsgndp instruction to copy floating point
scalar registers instead of the xxlor (specifically XXLORf) instruction that is
currently used. Additionally, this patch of utilizing xscpsgndp will apply to
P9, while pre-P9 will still use xxlor.
