1. Remove the existing code that would encode the constant offsets (if
there were any) on buffer intrinsic operations onto their
`MachineMemOperand`s. As far as I can tell, this use of `offset` has
no substantial impact on the generated code, especially since the same
reasoning is performed by areMemAccessesTriviallyDisjoint().
2. When a buffer resource intrinsic takes a pointer argument as the
base resource/descriptor, place that memory argument in the value
field of the MachineMemOperand attached to that intrinsic.
This is more conservative than what would be produced by more typical
LLVM code using GEP, as the Value (for alias analysis purposes)
corresponding to accessing buffer[0] and buffer[1] is the same.
However, the target-specific analysis of disjoint offsets covers a lot
of the simple usecases.
Despite this limitation, the new buffer intrinsics, combined with
LLVM's existing pointer annotations, allow for non-trivial
optimizations, as seen in the new tests, where marking two buffer
descriptors "noalias" allows merging together loads and stores in a
"load from A, modify loaded value, store to B" sequence, which would
not be possible previously.

In order to enable the LLVM frontend to better analyze buffer
operations (and to potentially enable more precise analyses on the
backend), define versions of the raw and structured buffer intrinsics
that use `ptr addrspace(8)` instead of `<4 x i32>` to represent their
rsrc arguments.
The new intrinsics are named by replacing `buffer.` with `buffer.ptr`.
One advantage to these intrinsic definitions is that, instead of
specifying that a buffer load/store will read/write some memory, we
can indicate that the memory read or written will be based on the
pointer argument. This means that, for example, a read from a
`noalias` buffer can be pulled out of a loop that is modifying a
distinct buffer.
In the future, we will define custom PseudoSourceValues that will
allow us to package up the (buffer, index, offset) triples that buffer
intrinsics contain and allow for more precise backend analysis.
This work also enables creating address space 7, which represents
manipulation of raw buffers using native LLVM load and store
instructions.
Where tests simply used a buffer intrinsic while testing some other
code path (such as the tests for VGPR spills), they have been updated
to use the new intrinsic form. Tests that are "about" buffer
intrinsics (for instance, those that ensure that they codegen as
expected) have been duplicated, either within existing files or into
new ones.

Per discussion at
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/representing-buffer-descriptors-in-the-amdgpu-target-call-for-suggestions/68798,
we define two new address spaces for AMDGCN targets.
The first is address space 7, a non-integral address space (which was
already in the data layout) that has 160-bit pointers (which are
256-bit aligned) and uses a 32-bit offset. These pointers combine a
128-bit buffer descriptor and a 32-bit offset, and will be usable with
normal LLVM operations (load, store, GEP). However, they will be
rewritten out of existence before code generation.
The second of these is address space 8, the address space for "buffer
resources". These will be used to represent the resource arguments to
buffer instructions, and new buffer intrinsics will be defined that
take them instead of <4 x i32> as resource arguments. ptr
addrspace(8). These pointers are 128-bits long (with the same
alignment). They must not be used as the arguments to getelementptr or
otherwise used in address computations, since they can have
arbitrarily complex inherent addressing semantics that can't be
represented in LLVM. Even though, like their address space 7 cousins,
these pointers have deterministic ptrtoint/inttoptr semantics, they
are defined to be non-integral in order to prevent optimizations that
rely on pointers being a [0, [addr_max]] value from applying to them.
Future work includes:
- Defining new buffer intrinsics that take ptr addrspace(8) resources.
- A late rewrite to turn address space 7 operations into buffer
intrinsics and offset computations.
This commit also updates the "fallback address space" for buffer
intrinsics to the buffer resource, and updates the alias analysis
table.

Following up on the removal of BufferPSV in commit 43b86bf992 ("AMDGPU:
Remove BufferPseudoSourceValue")
It is unclear what exactly the right address space for images should be.
They seem morally closest to buffers, so that's what I went with. In
practical terms, address space 7 is better than address space 0 because
it can't alias with LDS.

The use of a PSV for buffer intrinsics is misleading because it may be
misinterpreted as all buffer intrinsics accessing the same address in
memory, which is clearly not true.
Instead, build MachineMemOperands without a pointer value but with an
address space, so that address space-based alias analysis can still
work.
There is a lot of test churn because previously address space 4
(constant address space) was used as an address space for buffer
intrinsics. This doesn't make much sense and seems to have been an
accident -- see the change in
AMDGPUTargetMachine::getAddressSpaceForPseudoSourceKind.

This will currently accept the old number of bytes syntax, and convert
it to a scalar. This should be removed in the near future (I think I
converted all of the tests already, but likely missed a few).
Not sure what the exact syntax and policy should be. We can continue
printing the number of bytes for non-generic instructions to avoid
test churn and only allow non-scalar types for generic instructions.
This will currently print the LLT in parentheses, but accept parsing
the existing integers and implicitly converting to scalar. The
parentheses are a bit ugly, but the parser logic seems unable to deal
without either parentheses or some keyword to indicate the start of a
type.
Replace individual operands GLC, SLC, and DLC with a single cache_policy
bitmask operand. This will reduce the number of operands in MIR and I hope
the amount of code. These operands are mostly 0 anyway.
Additional advantage that parser will accept these flags in any order unlike
now.
