This patch removes hidden codegen flag -print-schedule effectively reverting the logic originally committed as r300311 (https://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project?view=revision&revision=300311). Flag -print-schedule was originally introduced by r300311 to address PR32216 (https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32216). That bug was about adding "Better testing of schedule model instruction latencies/throughputs". These days, we can use llvm-mca to test scheduling models. So there is no longer a need for flag -print-schedule in LLVM. The main use case for PR32216 is now addressed by llvm-mca. Flag -print-schedule is mainly used for debugging purposes, and it is only actually used by x86 specific tests. We already have extensive (latency and throughput) tests under "test/tools/llvm-mca" for X86 processor models. That means, most (if not all) existing -print-schedule tests for X86 are redundant. When flag -print-schedule was first added to LLVM, several files had to be modified; a few APIs gained new arguments (see for example method MCAsmStreamer::EmitInstruction), and MCSubtargetInfo/TargetSubtargetInfo gained a couple of getSchedInfoStr() methods. Method getSchedInfoStr() had to originally work for both MCInst and MachineInstr. The original implmentation of getSchedInfoStr() introduced a subtle layering violation (reported as PR37160 and then fixed/worked-around by r330615). In retrospect, that new API could have been designed more optimally. We can always query MCSchedModel to get the latency and throughput. More importantly, the "sched-info" string should not have been generated by the subtarget. Note, r317782 fixed an issue where "print-schedule" didn't work very well in the presence of inline assembly. That commit is also reverted by this change.
