With the extra optimisations we have done, these should now be fine to
enable by default. Which is what this patch does.

Follow-up of cb47b8783: don't query TTI->preferPredicateOverEpilogue when
option -prefer-predicate-over-epilog is set to false, i.e. when we prefer not
to predicate the loop.

This is a follow up of d90804d, to also flag fmcp instructions as instructions
that we do not support in tail-predicated vector loops.

The vectoriser queries TTI->preferPredicateOverEpilogue to determine if
tail-folding is preferred for a loop, but it was not respecting loop hint
'predicate' that can disable this, which has now been added. This showed that
we were incorrectly initialising loop hint 'vectorize.predicate.enable' with 0
(i.e. FK_Disabled) but this should have been FK_Undefined, which has been
fixed.

This implements TTI hook 'preferPredicateOverEpilogue' for MVE. This is a
first version and it operates on single block loops only. With this change, the
vectoriser will now determine if tail-folding scalar remainder loops is
possible/desired, which is the first step to generate MVE tail-predicated
vector loops.
This is disabled by default for now. I.e,, this is depends on option
-disable-mve-tail-predication, which is off by default.
I will follow up on this soon with a patch for the vectoriser to respect loop
hint 'vectorize.predicate.enable'. I.e., with this loop hint set to Disabled,
we don't want to tail-fold and we shouldn't query this TTI hook, which is
done in D70125.

We have two ways to steer creating a predicated vector body over creating a
scalar epilogue. To force this, we have 1) a command line option and 2) a
pragma available. This adds a third: a target hook to TargetTransformInfo that
can be queried whether predication is preferred or not, which allows the
vectoriser to make the decision without forcing it.
While this change behaves as a non-functional change for now, it shows the
required TTI plumbing, usage of this new hook in the vectoriser, and the
beginning of an ARM MVE implementation. I will follow up on this with:
- a complete MVE implementation, see D69845.
- a patch to disable this, i.e. we should respect "vector_predicate(disable)"
and its corresponding loophint.
