Tom Stellard 898b9f020d TableGen: Generate a function for getting operand indices based on their defined names
This patch modifies TableGen to generate a function in
${TARGET}GenInstrInfo.inc called getNamedOperandIdx(), which can be used
to look up indices for operands based on their names.

In order to activate this feature for an instruction, you must set the
UseNamedOperandTable bit.

For example, if you have an instruction like:

def ADD : TargetInstr <(outs GPR:$dst), (ins GPR:$src0, GPR:$src1)>;

You can look up the operand indices using the new function, like this:

Target::getNamedOperandIdx(Target::ADD, Target::OpName::dst)  => 0
Target::getNamedOperandIdx(Target::ADD, Target::OpName::src0) => 1
Target::getNamedOperandIdx(Target::ADD, Target::OpName::src1) => 2

The operand names are case sensitive, so $dst and $DST are considered
different operands.

This change is useful for R600 which has instructions with a large number
of operands, many of which model single bit instruction configuration
values.  These configuration bits are common across most instructions,
but may have a different operand index depending on the instruction type.
It is useful to have a convenient way to look up the operand indices,
so these bits can be generically set on any instruction.

LLVM Documentation
==================

LLVM's documentation is written in reStructuredText, a lightweight
plaintext markup language (file extension `.rst`). While the
reStructuredText documentation should be quite readable in source form, it
is mostly meant to be processed by the Sphinx documentation generation
system to create HTML pages which are hosted on <http://llvm.org/docs/> and
updated after every commit. Manpage output is also supported, see below.

If you instead would like to generate and view the HTML locally, install
Sphinx <http://sphinx-doc.org/> and then do:

    cd docs/
    make -f Makefile.sphinx
    $BROWSER _build/html/index.html

The mapping between reStructuredText files and generated documentation is
`docs/Foo.rst` <-> `_build/html/Foo.html` <-> `http://llvm.org/docs/Foo.html`.

If you are interested in writing new documentation, you will want to read
`SphinxQuickstartTemplate.rst` which will get you writing documentation
very fast and includes examples of the most important reStructuredText
markup syntax.

Manpage Output
===============

Building the manpages is similar to building the HTML documentation. The
primary difference is to use the `man` makefile target, instead of the
default (which is `html`). Sphinx then produces the man pages in the
directory `_build/man/`.

    cd docs/
    make -f Makefile.sphinx man
    man -l _build/man/FileCheck.1

The correspondence between .rst files and man pages is
`docs/CommandGuide/Foo.rst` <-> `_build/man/Foo.1`.
These .rst files are also included during HTML generation so they are also
viewable online (as noted above) at e.g.
`http://llvm.org/docs/CommandGuide/Foo.html`.
