LTO objects might compiled with different `mbranch-protection` flags which will cause an error in the linker.
Such a setup is allowed in the normal build with this change that is possible.

The semantics of tail predication loops means that the value of LR as an
instruction is executed determines the predicate. In other words:
mov r3, #3
DLSTP lr, r3 // Start tail predication, lr==3
VADD.s32 q0, q1, q2 // Lanes 0,1 and 2 are updated in q0.
mov lr, #1
VADD.s32 q0, q1, q2 // Only first lane is updated.
This means that the value of lr cannot be spilled and re-used in tail
predication regions without potentially altering the behaviour of the
program. More lanes than required could be stored, for example, and in
the case of a gather those lanes might not have been setup, leading to
alignment exceptions.
This patch adds a new lr predicate operand to MVE instructions in order
to keep a reference to the lr that they use as a tail predicate. It will
usually hold the zeroreg meaning not predicated, being set to the LR phi
value in the MVETPAndVPTOptimisationsPass. This will prevent it from
being spilled anywhere that it needs to be used.
A lot of tests needed updating.

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.
Since d6de1e1a71406c75a4ea4d5a2fe84289f07ea3a1, no attributes is quivalent to
setting attribute to false.
This is a preliminary commit for https://reviews.llvm.org/D99080
In function ConvertVPTBlocks(), it is assumed that every instruction
within a vector-predicated block is predicated. This is false for debug
instructions, used by LLVM.
Because of this, an assertion failure is reached when an input contains
debug instructions inside VPT blocks. In non-assert builds, an out of
bounds memory access took place.
The present patch properly covers the case of debug instructions.
