This provides the low-level support to start using MVE vector types in
LLVM IR, loading and storing them, passing them to __asm__ statements
containing hand-written MVE vector instructions, and *if* you have the
hard-float ABI turned on, using them as function parameters.
(In the soft-float ABI, vector types are passed in integer registers,
and combining all those 32-bit integers into a q-reg requires support
for selection DAG nodes like insert_vector_elt and build_vector which
aren't implemented yet for MVE. In fact I've also had to add
`arm_aapcs_vfpcc` to a couple of existing tests to avoid that
problem.)
Specifically, this commit adds support for:
* spills, reloads and register moves for MVE vector registers
* ditto for the VPT predication mask that lives in VPR.P0
* make all the MVE vector types legal in ISel, and provide selection
DAG patterns for BITCAST, LOAD and STORE
* make loads and stores of scalar FP types conditional on
`hasFPRegs()` rather than `hasVFP2Base()`. As a result a few
existing tests needed their llc command lines updating to use
`-mattr=-fpregs` as their method of turning off all hardware FP
support.

Introduce three pseudo instructions to be used during DAG ISel to
represent v8.1-m low-overhead loops. One maps to set_loop_iterations
while loop_decrement_reg is lowered to two, so that we can separate
the decrement and branching operations. The pseudo instructions are
expanded pre-emission, where we can still decide whether we actually
want to generate a low-overhead loop, in a new pass:
ARMLowOverheadLoops. The pass currently bails, reverting to an sub,
icmp and br, in the cases where a call or stack spill/restore happens
between the decrement and branching instructions, or if the loop is
too large.

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.
