This is really a workaround to allow control flow lowering in the
presence of convergence control tokens. Control-flow intrinsics in LLVM
IR are convergent because they indirectly represent the wave CFG, i.e.,
sets of threads that are "converged" or "execute in lock-step". But they
exist during a small window in the lowering process, inserted after the
structurizer and then translated to equivalent MIR pseudos. So rather
than create convergence tokens for these builtins, we simply mark them
as not convergent.
The corresponding MIR pseudos are marked as having side effects, which
is sufficient to prevent optimizations without having to mark them as
convergent.
Introduced the convergent equivalent of the existing G_INTRINSIC opcodes:
- G_INTRINSIC_CONVERGENT
- G_INTRINSIC_CONVERGENT_W_SIDE_EFFECTS
Out of the targets that currently have some support for GlobalISel, the patch
assumes that the convergent intrinsics only relevant to SPIRV and AMDGPU.

When an instruction is determined to be divergent, not all its outputs are
divergent. The users of only divergent outputs should now be examined for
divergence.
Also, replaced a repeating pattern of "if new divergent instruction, then add to
worklist" by combining it into a single function. This does not cause any change
in functionality.

The MachineUA now queries the target to determine if a given register holds a
uniform value. This is determined using the corresponding register bank if
available, or by a combination of the register class and value type. This
assumes that the target is optimizing for performance by choosing registers, and
the target is responsible for any mismatch with the inferred uniformity.
For example, on AMDGPU, an SGPR is now treated as uniform, except if the
register bank is VCC (i.e., the register holds a wave-wide vector of 1-bit
values) or equivalently if it has a value type of s1.
- This does not always work with inline asm, where the register bank or the
value type might not be present. We assume that the SGPR is uniform, because
it is not expected to be s1 in the vast majority of cases.
- The pseudo branch instruction SI_LOOP is now hard-coded to be always
divergent, although its condition is an SGPR.

UniformityAnalysis offers all of the same features and much more, there is no reason left to use the legacy DAs.
See RFC: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-deprecate-divergenceanalysis-legacydivergenceanalysis/69538
- Remove LegacyDivergenceAnalysis.h/.cpp
- Remove DivergenceAnalysis.h/.cpp + Unit tests
- Remove SyncDependenceAnalysis - it was not a real registered analysis and was only used by DAs
- Remove/adjust references to the passes in the docs where applicable
- Remove TTI hook associated with those passes.
- Move tests to UniformityAnalysis folder.
- Remove RUN lines for the DA, leave only the UA ones.
- Some tests had to be adjusted/removed depending on how they used the legacy DAs.
