With this change, InstrBuilder emits an error if the MCInst sequence contains an
instruction with a variadic opcode, and a non-zero number of variadic operands.
Currently we don't know how to correctly analyze variadic opcodes. The problem
with variadic operands is that there is no information for them in the opcode
descriptor (i.e. MCInstrDesc). That means, we don't know which variadic operands
are defs, and which are uses.
In future, we could try to conservatively assume that any extra register
operands is both a register use and a register definition.
This patch fixes a subtle bug in the evaluation of read/write operands for ARM
VLD1 with implicit index update. Added test vld1-index-update.s

Summary: This allows to remove `using namespace llvm;` in those *.cpp files
When we want to revisit the decision (everything resides in llvm::mca::*) in the future, we can move things to a nested namespace of llvm::mca::, to conceptually make them separate from the rest of llvm::mca::*

Also, removed the initialization of vectors used for processor resource masks.
Support function 'computeProcResourceMasks()' already calls method resize on
those vectors.
No functional change intended.

A new class named InstructionError has been added to Support.h in order to
improve the error reporting from class InstrBuilder.
The llvm-mca driver is responsible for handling InstructionError objects, and
printing them out to stderr.
The goal of this patch is to remove all the remaining error handling logic from
the library code.
In particular, this allows us to:
- Simplify the logic in InstrBuilder by removing a needless dependency from
MCInstrPrinter.
- Centralize all the error halding logic in a new function named 'runPipeline'
(see llvm-mca.cpp).
This is also a first step towards generalizing class InstrBuilder, so that in
future, we will be able to reuse its logic to also "lower" MachineInstr to
mca::Instruction objects.

This should help with catching inconsistent definitions of instructions with
zero opcodes, which also declare to consume scheduler/pipeline resources.

Summary:
This patch introduces llvm-mca as a library. The driver (llvm-mca.cpp), views, and stats, are not part of the library.
Those are separate components that are not required for the functioning of llvm-mca.
The directory has been organized as follows:
All library source files now reside in:
- `lib/HardwareUnits/` - All subclasses of HardwareUnit (these represent the simulated hardware components of a backend).
(LSUnit does not inherit from HardwareUnit, but Scheduler does which uses LSUnit).
- `lib/Stages/` - All subclasses of the pipeline stages.
- `lib/` - This is the root of the library and contains library code that does not fit into the Stages or HardwareUnit subdirs.
All library header files now reside in the `include` directory and mimic the same layout as the `lib` directory mentioned above.
In the (near) future we would like to move the library (include and lib) contents from tools and into the core of llvm somewhere.
That change would allow various analysis and optimization passes to make use of MCA functionality for things like cost modeling.
I left all of the non-library code just where it has always been, in the root of the llvm-mca directory.
The include directives for the non-library source file have been updated to refer to the llvm-mca library headers.
I updated the llvm-mca/CMakeLists.txt file to include the library headers, but I made the non-library code
explicitly reference the library's 'include' directory. Once we eventually (hopefully) migrate the MCA library
components into llvm the include directives used by the non-library source files will be updated to point to the
proper location in llvm.
