Agreed policy is that RISC-V extensions that have not yet been ratified
should be marked as experimental, and enabling them requires the use of
the -menable-experimental-extensions flag when using clang alongside the
version number. These extensions have now been ratified, so this is no
longer necessary, and the target feature names can be renamed to no
longer be prefixed with "experimental-".

Currently, we restore the return address register as the last restoring
instruction in the epilog. The next instruction is `ret` usually. It is
a use of return address register. In some microarchitectures, there is
load-to-use data hazard. To avoid the load-to-use data hazard, we could
separate the load instruction from its use as far as possible. In this
patch, we reverse the order of restoring callee-saved registers to
increase the distance of `load ra` and `ret` in the epilog.

Add an alias of `addi [x], zero, imm` to generate pseudo
instruction li, which makes assembly mush more readable.
For existed tests, users can update them by running script
`llvm/utils/update_llc_test_checks.py`.

These test files are copied directly from AArch64. Some of the cases
may benefit from ANDN with the Zbb extension. Somes cases already
improve use ANDN.
selectcc-to-shiftand.ll also contains tests that test select->and
conversion even when a ANDN isn't needed. I think this improves our
coverage of these optimizations.
