Vector load/store instructions support an optional alignment field
that the compiler can use to provide known alignment info to the
hardware. If the field is used (and the information is correct),
the hardware may be able (on some models) to perform faster memory
accesses than otherwise.
This patch adds support for alignment hints in the assembler and
disassembler, and fills in known alignment during codegen.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Some instructions expand to more than one decoder group.
This has been hitherto ignored, but is handled with this patch.

NFC changes to make scheduler TableGen files more readable, by using loops
instead of a lot of similar defs with just e.g. a latency value that changes.

As a consequence of recent discussions
(http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2018-May/123164.html), this patch
changes the SystemZ SchedModels so that the IssueWidth is 6, which is the
decoder capacity, and NumMicroOps become the number of decoder slots needed
per instruction.
In addition, the SchedWrite latencies now match the MachineInstructions
def-operand indexes, and ReadAdvances have been added on instructions with
one register operand and one memory operand.

If the MachineInstr uses a custom inserter and is then erased after
instruction selection, there is no use for mapping it to a sched class.

This is similar to the check later when we remap some of the instructions from one class to a new one. But if we reuse the class we don't get to do that check.
So many CPUs have violations of this check that I had to add a flag to the SchedMachineModel to allow it to be disabled. Hopefully we can get those cleaned up quickly and remove this flag.
A lot of the violations are due to overlapping regular expressions, but that's not the only kind of issue it found.

This adds support for the new 128-bit vector float instructions of z14.
Note that these instructions actually only operate on the f128 type,
since only each 128-bit vector register can hold only one 128-bit
float value. However, this is still preferable to the legacy 128-bit
float instructions, since those operate on pairs of floating-point
registers (so we can hold at most 8 values in registers), while the
new instructions use single vector registers (so we hold up to 32
value in registers).
Adding support includes:
- Enabling the instructions for the assembler/disassembler.
- CodeGen for the instructions. This includes allocating the f128
type now to the VR128BitRegClass instead of FP128BitRegClass.
- Scheduler description support for the instructions.
Note that for a small number of operations, we have no new vector
instructions (like integer <-> 128-bit float conversions), and so
we use the legacy instruction and then reformat the operand
(i.e. copy between a pair of floating-point registers and a
vector register).

This adds support for the new 32-bit vector float instructions of z14.
This includes:
- Enabling the instructions for the assembler/disassembler.
- CodeGen for the instructions, including new LLVM intrinsics.
- Scheduler description support for the instructions.
- Update to the vector cost function calculations.
In general, CodeGen support for the new v4f32 instructions closely
matches support for the existing v2f64 instructions.

This patch series adds support for the IBM z14 processor. This part includes:
- Basic support for the new processor and its features.
- Support for new instructions (except vector 32-bit float and 128-bit float).
- CodeGen for new instructions, including new LLVM intrinsics.
- Scheduler description for the new processor.
- Detection of z14 as host processor.
Support for the new 32-bit vector float and 128-bit vector float
instructions is provided by separate patches.
