Summary:
This allows us to reduce the number of different machine instruction
opcodes, which reduces the table sizes and helps flatten the TableGen
multiclass hierarchies.
We can do this because for each hardware MIMG opcode, we have a full set
of IMAGE_xxx_Vn_Vm machine instructions for all required sizes of vdata
and vaddr registers. Instead of having separate D16 machine instructions,
a packed D16 instructions loading e.g. 4 components can simply use the
same V2 opcode variant that non-D16 instructions use.
We still require a TSFlag for D16 buffer instructions, because the
D16-ness of buffer instructions is part of the opcode. Renaming the flag
should help avoid future confusion.
The one non-obvious code change is that for gather4 instructions, the
disassembler can no longer automatically decide whether to use a V2 or
a V4 variant. The existing logic which choose the correct variant for
other MIMG instruction is extended to cover gather4 as well.
As a bonus, some of the assembler error messages are now more helpful
(e.g., complaining about a wrong data size instead of a non-existing
instruction).
While we're at it, delete a whole bunch of dead legacy TableGen code.

In preparation for adding support for named vregs we are changing the sigil for
physical registers in MIR to '$' from '%'. This will prevent name clashes of
named physical register with named vregs.

test/CodeGen/MIR should contain tests that intent to test the MIR
printing or parsing. Tests that test something else should be in
test/CodeGen/TargetName even when they are written in .mir.
As a rule of thumb, only tests using "llc -run-pass none" should be in
test/CodeGen/MIR.

Also add glc bit to the scalar loads since they exist on VI
and change the caching behavior.
This currently has an assembler bug where the glc bit is incorrectly
accepted on SI/CI which do not have it.

Subregister definitions are considered uses for the purpose of tracking
liveness of the whole register. At the same time, when calculating live
interval subranges, subregister defs should not be treated as uses.
