Summary:
GCC compresses the pseudo instruction "mv rd, rs", which is an alias of
"addi rd, rs, 0", to "c.mv rd, rs".
In LLVM we rely on the canonical MC instruction (MCInst) to do our compression
checks and since there is no rule to compress "addi rd, rs, 0" --> "c.mv
rd, rs" we lose this compression opportunity to gcc.
In this patch we fix that by adding an addi to c.mv compression pattern, the
instruction "mv rd, rs" will be compressed to "c.mv rd, rs" just like
gcc does.

Summary:
This patch implements a tablegen-driven Instruction Compression
mechanism for generating RISCV compressed instructions
(C Extension) from the expanded instruction form.
This tablegen backend processes CompressPat declarations in a
td file and generates all the compile-time and runtime checks
required to validate the declarations, validate the input
operands and generate correct instructions.
The checks include validating register operands, immediate
operands, fixed register operands and fixed immediate operands.
Example:
class CompressPat<dag input, dag output> {
dag Input = input;
dag Output = output;
list<Predicate> Predicates = [];
}
let Predicates = [HasStdExtC] in {
def : CompressPat<(ADD GPRNoX0:$rs1, GPRNoX0:$rs1, GPRNoX0:$rs2),
(C_ADD GPRNoX0:$rs1, GPRNoX0:$rs2)>;
}
The result is an auto-generated header file
'RISCVGenCompressEmitter.inc' which exports two functions for
compressing/uncompressing MCInst instructions, plus
some helper functions:
bool compressInst(MCInst& OutInst, const MCInst &MI,
const MCSubtargetInfo &STI,
MCContext &Context);
bool uncompressInst(MCInst& OutInst, const MCInst &MI,
const MCRegisterInfo &MRI,
const MCSubtargetInfo &STI);
The clients that include this auto-generated header file and
invoke these functions can compress an instruction before emitting
it, in the target-specific ASM or ELF streamer, or can uncompress
an instruction before printing it, when the expanded instruction
format aliases is favored.
The following clients were added to implement compression\uncompression
for RISCV:
1) RISCVAsmParser::MatchAndEmitInstruction:
Inserted a call to compressInst() to compresses instructions
parsed by llvm-mc coming from an ASM input.
2) RISCVAsmPrinter::EmitInstruction:
Inserted a call to compressInst() to compress instructions that
were lowered from Machine Instructions (MachineInstr).
3) RVInstPrinter::printInst:
Inserted a call to uncompressInst() to print the expanded
version of the instruction instead of the compressed one (e.g,
add s0, s0, a5 instead of c.add s0, a5) when -riscv-no-aliases
is not passed.
