1. The PR proceeds with a backend target hook to allow front-ends to
determine what target features are available in a compilation based on
the CPU name.
2. Fix a backend target feature bug that supports HTM for
Power8/9/10/11. However, HTM is only supported on Power8/9 according to
the ISA.
3. All target features that are hardcoded in PPC.cpp can be retrieved
from the backend target feature. I have double-checked that the
hardcoded logic for inferring target features from the CPU in the
frontend(PPC.cpp) is the same as in PPC.td.
The reland patch addressed the comment

This reverts commit 9208b343e962b9f1140ee345c0050a3920bdcbf2.
TargetParser shouldn't re-run the PPC subtarget tablegen target, it
should define its own `-gen-ppc-target-def` rule like all the other
targets do in llvm/include/llvm/TargetParser/CMakeLists.txt .
One user reported that there are incorrect CMake dependencies after this
change, so I will roll this back in the meantime.

This patch makes sure that the builtins __builtin_ppc_load8r and
__ builtin_ppc_store8r are only available for Power 7 and up.
Currently the builtins seem to produce incorrect code if used for
Power 6 or before.

[NFC] This patch adds features for pwr7, pwr8, and pwr9 that can be
used for semachecking builtin functions that are only valid for certain
versions of ppc.
