Nicolai Haehnle f267431901 AMDGPU: Turn D16 for MIMG instructions into a regular operand
Summary:
This allows us to reduce the number of different machine instruction
opcodes, which reduces the table sizes and helps flatten the TableGen
multiclass hierarchies.

We can do this because for each hardware MIMG opcode, we have a full set
of IMAGE_xxx_Vn_Vm machine instructions for all required sizes of vdata
and vaddr registers. Instead of having separate D16 machine instructions,
a packed D16 instructions loading e.g. 4 components can simply use the
same V2 opcode variant that non-D16 instructions use.

We still require a TSFlag for D16 buffer instructions, because the
D16-ness of buffer instructions is part of the opcode. Renaming the flag
should help avoid future confusion.

The one non-obvious code change is that for gather4 instructions, the
disassembler can no longer automatically decide whether to use a V2 or
a V4 variant. The existing logic which choose the correct variant for
other MIMG instruction is extended to cover gather4 as well.

As a bonus, some of the assembler error messages are now more helpful
(e.g., complaining about a wrong data size instead of a non-existing
instruction).

While we're at it, delete a whole bunch of dead legacy TableGen code.
