This is the first use of D(L,B) addressing, which required a fair bit
of surgery. For that reason, the patch just adds the instruction
definition and the associated assembler and disassembler support.
A later patch will actually make use of it for codegen.

This patch adds support for the CRJ and CGRJ instructions. Support for
the immediate forms will be a separate patch.
The architecture has a large number of comparison instructions. I think
it's generally better to concentrate on using the "best" comparison
instruction first and foremost, then only use something like CRJ if
CR really was the natual choice of comparison instruction. The patch
therefore opportunistically converts separate CR and BRC instructions
into a single CRJ while emitting instructions in ISelLowering.

Previously, an invalid instruction like:
foo %r1, %r0
would generate the rather odd error message:
....: error: unknown token in expression
foo %r1, %r0
^
We now get the more informative:
....: error: invalid instruction
foo %r1, %r0
^
The same would happen if an address were used where a register was expected.
We now get "invalid operand for instruction" instead.
llvm-svn: 182644
The idea is to make sure that:
(1) "register expected" is restricted to cases where ParseRegister()
is called and the token obviously isn't a register.
(2) "invalid register" is restricted to cases where a register-like "%..."
sequence is found, but the "..." makes no sense.
(3) the generic "invalid operand for instruction" is used in cases where
the wrong register type is used (GPR instead of FPR, etc.).
(4) the new "invalid register pair" is used if the register has the right type,
but is not a valid register pair.
Testing of (1)-(3) is now restricted to regs-bad.s. It uses a representative
instruction for each register class to make sure that only registers from
that class are accepted.
(4) is tested by both regs-bad.s (which checks all invalid register pairs)
and insn-bad.s (which tests one invalid pair for each instruction that
requires a pair).
While there, I changed "Number" to "Num" for consistency with the
operand class.

The GNU assembler treats things like:
brasl %r14, 100
in the same way as:
brasl %r14, .+100
rather than as a branch to absolute address 100. We implemented this in
LLVM by creating an immediate operand rather than the usual expr operand,
and by handling immediate operands specially in the code emitter.
This was undesirable for (at least) three reasons:
- the specialness of immediate operands was exposed to the backend MC code,
rather than being limited to the assembler parser.
- in disassembly, an immediate operand really is an absolute address.
(Note that this means reassembling printed disassembly can't recreate
the original code.)
- it would interfere with any assembly manipulation that we might
try in future. E.g. operations like branch shortening can change
the relative position of instructions, but any code that updates
sym+offset addresses wouldn't update an immediate "100" operand
in the same way as an explicit ".+100" operand.
This patch changes the implementation so that the assembler creates
a "." label for immediate PC-relative operands, so that the operand
to the MCInst is always the absolute address. The patch also adds
some error checking of the offset.
