Expose the processor resources defined by the machine model to the
scheduler and other clients through the TargetSchedule interface.
Normalize each resource count with respect to other kinds of
resources. This allows scheduling heuristics to balance resources
against other kinds of resources and latency.

This replaces an existing subtarget hook on ARM and allows standard
CodeGen passes to potentially use the property.

subtarget CPU descriptions and support new features of
MachineScheduler.
MachineModel has three categories of data:
1) Basic properties for coarse grained instruction cost model.
2) Scheduler Read/Write resources for simple per-opcode and operand cost model (TBD).
3) Instruction itineraties for detailed per-cycle reservation tables.
These will all live side-by-side. Any subtarget can use any
combination of them. Instruction itineraries will not change in the
near term. In the long run, I expect them to only be relevant for
in-order VLIW machines that have complex contraints and require a
precise scheduling/bundling model. Once itineraries are only actively
used by VLIW-ish targets, they could be replaced by something more
appropriate for those targets.
This tablegen backend rewrite sets things up for introducing
MachineModel type #2: per opcode/operand cost model.
