[NFC] As part of using inclusive language within the llvm project and to
match the renamed master branch, this patch replaces master with main in
`convert_arm_neon.py`.

The modifier system used to mutate types on NEON intrinsic definitions had a
separate letter for all kinds of transformations that might be needed, and we
were quite quickly running out of letters to use. This patch converts to a much
smaller set of orthogonal modifiers that can be applied together to achieve the
desired effect.
When merging with downstream it is likely to cause a conflict with any local
modifications to the .td files. There is a new script in
utils/convert_arm_neon.py that was used to convert all .td definitions and I
would suggest running it on the last downstream version of those files before
this commit rather than resolving conflicts manually.
The original version broke vcreate_* because it became a macro and didn't
apply the normal integer promotion rules before bitcasting to a vector.
This adds a temporary.
This broke the vcreate_u64 intrinsic. Example:
$ cat /tmp/a.cc
#include <arm_neon.h>
void g() {
auto v = vcreate_u64(0);
}
$ bin/clang -c /tmp/a.cc --target=arm-linux-androideabi16 -march=armv7-a
/tmp/a.cc:4:12: error: C-style cast from scalar 'int' to vector 'uint64x1_t' (vector of 1 'uint64_t' value) of different size
auto v = vcreate_u64(0);
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/work/llvm.monorepo/build.release/lib/clang/10.0.0/include/arm_neon.h:4144:11: note: expanded from macro 'vcreate_u64'
__ret = (uint64x1_t)(__p0); \
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Reverting until this can be investigated.
