Dynamic linking on PPC64 has had problems since we had to move the top-down
hazard-detection logic post-ra. For dynamic linking to work there needs to be
a nop placed after every call. It turns out that it is really hard to guarantee
that nothing will be placed in between the call (bl) and the nop during post-ra
scheduling. Previous attempts at fixing this by placing logic inside the
hazard detector only partially worked.
This is now fixed in a different way: call+nop codegen-only instructions. As far
as CodeGen is concerned the pair is now a single instruction and cannot be split.
This solution works much better than previous attempts.
The scoreboard hazard detector is also renamed to be more generic, there is currently
no cpu-specific logic in it.

DAG scheduling during isel. Most new functionality is currently
guarded by -enable-sched-cycles and -enable-sched-hazard.
Added InstrItineraryData::IssueWidth field, currently derived from
ARM itineraries, but could be initialized differently on other targets.
Added ScheduleHazardRecognizer::MaxLookAhead to indicate whether it is
active, and if so how many cycles of state it holds.
Added SchedulingPriorityQueue::HasReadyFilter to allowing gating entry
into the scheduler's available queue.
ScoreboardHazardRecognizer now accesses the ScheduleDAG in order to
get information about it's SUnits, provides RecedeCycle for bottom-up
scheduling, correctly computes scoreboard depth, tracks IssueCount, and
considers potential stall cycles when checking for hazards.
ScheduleDAGRRList now models machine cycles and hazards (under
flags). It tracks MinAvailableCycle, drives the hazard recognizer and
priority queue's ready filter, manages a new PendingQueue, properly
accounts for stall cycles, etc.

a new toy hazard recognizier heuristic which attempts to direct the
scheduler to avoid clumping large groups of loads or stores too densely.

is currently off by default, and can be enabled with
-disable-post-RA-scheduler=false.
This doesn't have a significant impact on most code yet because it doesn't
yet do anything to address anti-dependencies and it doesn't attempt to
disambiguate memory references. Also, several popular targets
don't have pipeline descriptions yet.
The majority of the changes here are splitting the SelectionDAG-specific
code out of ScheduleDAG, so that ScheduleDAG can be moved to
libLLVMCodeGen.a. The interface between ScheduleDAG-using code and
the rest of the scheduling code is somewhat rough and will evolve.

1. Use flags on the instructions in the .td file to indicate the PPC970 unit
type instead of a table in the .cpp file. Much cleaner.
2. Change the hazard recognizer to build d-groups according to the actual
algorithm used, not my flawed understanding of it.
3. Model "must be in the first slot" and "must be the only instr in a group"
accurately.
