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.

If x has multiple sign bits than it doesn't matter which one we extend from so we can sext from x's msb instead.
The X86 setcc-combine.ll changes are a little weird. It appears we ended up with a (sext_inreg (aext (trunc (extractelt)))) after type legalization. The sext_inreg+aext now gets optimized by this combine to leave (sext (trunc (extractelt))). Then we visit the trunc before we visit the sext. This ends up changing the truncate to an extractvectorelt from a bitcasted vector. I have a follow up patch to fix this.

Legalize and emit code for truncate and convert float128 to (un)signed short
and (un)signed char.
