The canonical form of the BFM instruction is always one of the more explicit
extract or insert operations, which makes reading output much easier.

The canonical syntax for shifts by a variable amount does not end with 'v', but
that syntax should be supported as an alias (presumably for legacy reasons).

Since these are mostly used in "lsl #16", "lsl #32", "lsl #48" combinations to
piece together an immediate in 16-bit chunks, hex is probably the most
appropriate format.

This is mostly aimed at the NEON logical operations and MOVI/MVNI (since they
accept weird shifts which are more naturally understandable in hex notation).
Also changes BRK/HINT etc, which is probably a neutral change, but easier than
the alternative.

Since these instructions only accept a 12-bit immediate, possibly shifted left
by 12, the canonical syntax used by the architecture reference manual is "#N {,
lsl #12 }". We should accept an immediate that has already been shifted, (e.g.
Also, print a comment giving the full addend since it can be helpful.

This matches ARM64 behaviour, which I think is clearer. It also puts all the
churn from that difference into one easily ignored commit.

AArch64 has feature predicates for NEON, FP and CRYPTO instructions.
This allows the compiler to generate code without using FP, NEON
or CRYPTO instructions.

This adds a second implementation of the AArch64 architecture to LLVM,
accessible in parallel via the "arm64" triple. The plan over the
coming weeks & months is to merge the two into a single backend,
during which time thorough code review should naturally occur.
Everything will be easier with the target in-tree though, hence this
commit.

VSX is an ISA extension supported on the POWER7 and later cores that enhances
floating-point vector and scalar capabilities. Among other things, this adds
<2 x double> support and generally helps to reduce register pressure.
The interesting part of this ISA feature is the register configuration: there
are 64 new 128-bit vector registers, the 32 of which are super-registers of the
existing 32 scalar floating-point registers, and the second 32 of which overlap
with the 32 Altivec vector registers. This makes things like vector insertion
and extraction tricky: this can be free but only if we force a restriction to
the right register subclass when needed. A new "minipass" PPCVSXCopy takes care
of this (although it could do a more-optimal job of it; see the comment about
unnecessary copies below).
Please note that, currently, VSX is not enabled by default when targeting
anything because it is not yet ready for that. The assembler and disassembler
are fully implemented and tested. However:
- CodeGen support causes miscompiles; test-suite runtime failures:

MultiSource/Benchmarks/McCat/08-main/main
MultiSource/Benchmarks/Olden/voronoi/voronoi

MultiSource/Benchmarks/tramp3d-v4/tramp3d-v4
SingleSource/Benchmarks/CoyoteBench/almabench
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/matmul_f64_4x4
- The lowering currently falls back to using Altivec instructions far more
than it should. Worse, there are some things that are scalarized through the
stack that shouldn't be.
- A lot of unnecessary copies make it past the optimizers, and this needs to
be fixed.
- Many more regression tests are needed.
Normally, I'd fix these things prior to committing, but there are some
students and other contributors who would like to work this, and so it makes
sense to move this development process upstream where it can be subject to the
regular code-review procedures.
