We want to run the Machine Scheduler instead of the List Scheduler after RA.
Checked with a performance run on a Power 9 machine with SPEC 2006 and while
some benchmarks improved and others degraded the geomean was slightly improved
with the Machine Scheduler.

Currently we have a number of tests that fail with -verify-machineinstrs.
To detect this cases earlier we add the option to the testcases with the
exception of tests that will currently fail with this option. PR 27456 keeps
track of this failures.
No code review, as discussed with Hal Finkel.

I'm adding a regression test to better cover code generation for unaligned
vector loads and stores, but there's no functional change to the code
generation here. There is an improvement to the cost model for unaligned vector
loads and stores, mostly for QPX (for which we were not previously accounting
for the permutation-based loads), and the cost model implementation is cleaner.
