In testing, we've found yet another miscompile caused by the new tables.
And this one is even less clear how to fix (we could teach it to fold
a 16-bit load instead of the 32-bit load it wants, or block folding
entirely).
Also, the approach to excluding instructions seems increasingly to not
scale well.
I have left a more detailed analysis on the review log for the original
patch (https://reviews.llvm.org/D32684) along with suggested path
forward. I will land an additional test case that I wrote which covers
the code that was miscompiling (folding into the output of `pextrw`) in
a subsequent commit to keep this a pure revert.
For each commit reverted here, I've restricted the revert to the
non-test code touching the x86 fold table emission until the last commit
where I did revert the test updates. This means the *new* test cases
added for `insertps` and `xchg` remain untouched (and continue to pass).
Reverted commits:
r304540: [X86] Don't fold into memory operands into insertps in the ...
r304347: [TableGen] Adapt more places to getValueAsString now ...
r304163: [X86] Don't fold away the memory operand of an xchg.
r304123: Don't capture a temporary std::string in a StringRef.
r304122: Resubmit "[X86] Adding new LLVM TableGen backend that ..."
Original commit was in r304088, and after a string of fixes was reverted
previously in r304121 to fix build bots, and then re-landed in r304122.

This was reverted due to buildbot breakages and I was not familiar
with this code to investigate it. But while trying to get a
useful backtrace for the author, it turns out the fix was very
obvious. Resubmitting this patch as is, and will submit the
fix in a followup so that the fix is not hidden in the larger
CL.

This reverts commit 28cb1003507f287726f43c771024a1dc102c45fe as well
as all subsequent followups. llvm-tblgen currently segfaults with
this change, and it seems it has been broken on the bots all
day with no fixes in preparation. See, for example:

X86 backend holds huge tables in order to map between the register and memory forms of each instruction.
This TableGen Backend automatically generated all these tables with the appropriate flags for each entry.

I noticed unnecessary 'sbb' instructions in D30472 and while looking at 'ptest' codegen recently.
This happens because we were transforming any 'setb' - even when we only wanted a single-bit result.
This patch moves those transforms under visitAdd/visitSub, so we we're only creating sbb/adc when it
is a win. I don't know why we need a SETCC_CARRY node type, but I'm not proposing to change that
existing behavior in this patch.
Also, I'm skeptical that sbb/adc are a win for all micro-arches, so I added comments to the test files
where this transform still fires.
The test changes here are all cases where we no longer produce sbb/adc. Avoiding partial register
stalls (generating an xor to clear a register) is not handled in some cases, but that's a separate
issue.

xorl + setcc is generally the preferred sequence due to the partial register
stall setcc + movzbl suffers from. As a bonus, it also encodes one byte smaller.
This fixes PR28146.
The original commit tried inserting an 8bit-subreg into a GR32 (not GR32_ABCD)
which was not appreciated by fast regalloc on 32-bit.
