Introduce basic schedule model for AMD Zen 3 CPU's, a.k.a `znver3`.
This is fully built from scratch, from llvm-mca measurements
and documented reference materials.
Nothing was copied from `znver2`/`znver1`.
I believe this is in a reasonable state of completion for inclusion,
probably better than D52779 `bdver2` was :)
Namely:
* uops are pretty spot-on (at least what llvm-mca can measure)
{F16422596}
* latency is also pretty spot-on (at least what llvm-mca can measure)
{F16422601}
* throughput is within reason
{F16422607}
I haven't run much benchmarks with this,
however RawSpeed benchmarks says this is beneficial:
{F16603978}
{F16604029}
I'll call out the obvious problems there:
* i didn't really bother with X87 instructions
* i didn't really bother with obviously-microcoded/system instructions
* There are large discrepancy in throughput for `mr` and `rm` instructions.
I'm not really sure if it's a modelling defect that needs to be fixed,
or it's a defect of measurments.
* Pipe distributions are probably bad :)
I can't do much here until AMD allows that to be fixed
by documenting the appropriate counters and updating libpfm
That being said, as @RKSimon notes:

so how much worse this could possibly be?!
Things that aren't there:
* Various tunings: zero idioms, etc. That is follow-ups.

This patch adds a pipeline to support in-order CPUs such as ARM
Cortex-A55.
In-order pipeline implements a simplified version of Dispatch,
Scheduler and Execute stages as a single stage. Entry and Retire
stages are common for both in-order and out-of-order pipelines.

Summary:
It's super irritating.
[properly configured] git client then complains about that double-newline,
and you have to use `--force` to ignore the warning, since even if you
fix it manually, it will be reintroduced the very next runtime :/

llvm-mca is an LLVM based performance analysis tool that can be used to
statically measure the performance of code, and to help triage potential
problems with target scheduling models.
llvm-mca uses information which is already available in LLVM (e.g. scheduling
models) to statically measure the performance of machine code in a specific cpu.
Performance is measured in terms of throughput as well as processor resource
consumption. The tool currently works for processors with an out-of-order
backend, for which there is a scheduling model available in LLVM.
The main goal of this tool is not just to predict the performance of the code
when run on the target, but also help with diagnosing potential performance
issues.
Given an assembly code sequence, llvm-mca estimates the IPC (instructions per
cycle), as well as hardware resources pressure. The analysis and reporting style
were mostly inspired by the IACA tool from Intel.
