3f6bb2713e Add a flag to indicate that an instruction is as cheap (or cheaper) than a move
instruction to execute. This can be used for transformations (like two-address
conversion) to remat an instruction instead of generating a "move"
instruction. The idea is to decrease the live ranges and register pressure and
all that jazz.

0faed2a9a6 Add support in TableGen for unknown operands that infer their type from the pattern their used in. This will be used to allow insert/extract subreg patterns in .td files!

317332fc2a Start inferring side effect information more aggressively, and fix many bugs in the
x86 backend where instructions were not marked maystore/mayload, and perf issues where
instructions were not marked neverHasSideEffects.  It would be really nice if we could
write patterns for copy instructions.

I have audited all the x86 instructions down to MOVDQAmr.  The flags on others and on
other targets are probably not right in all cases, but no clients currently use this
info that are enabled by default.

07fde9bde1 add a mayLoad property for machine instructions, a correlary to mayStore.
This is currently not set by anything.

f376c99ea0 rename hasVariableOperands() -> isVariadic(). Add some comments.
Evan, please review the comments I added to getNumDefs to make sure
that they are accurate, thx.

6f8713decb the name field of instructions is never set to a non-empty string,
just unconditionally use the def name of the instruction.

a4ce4f6987 rename isLoad -> isSimpleLoad due to evan's desire to have such a predicate.
