This is split off from D80316, slightly tightening the definition of overloaded
hardwareloop intrinsic llvm.loop.decrement.reg specifying that both operands
its result have the same type.
The code is now in a good enough state to pass the bunch of tests that
I have run (after fixing the bugs), so let's enable it by default.

Backend changes to enable WLS/LE low-overhead loops for armv8.1-m:
1) Use TTI to communicate to the HardwareLoop pass that we should try
to generate intrinsics that guard the loop entry, as well as setting
the loop trip count.
2) Lower the BRCOND that uses said intrinsic to an Arm specific node:
ARMWLS.
3) ISelDAGToDAG the node to a new pseudo instruction:
t2WhileLoopStart.
4) Add support in ArmLowOverheadLoops to handle the new pseudo
instruction.

Implement the backend target hook to drive the HardwareLoops pass.
The low-overhead branch extension for Arm M-class cores is flexible
enough that we don't have to ensure correctness at this point, except
checking that the loop counter variable can be stored in LR - a
32-bit register. For it to be profitable, we want to avoid loops that
contain function calls, or any other instruction that alters the PC.
This implementation uses TargetLoweringInfo, to query type and
operation actions, looks at intrinsic calls and also performs some
manual checks for remainder/division and FP operations.
I think this should be a good base to start and extra details can be
filled out later.
