PowerPC subtargets prior to Power9 use the 'legacy' itinerary way to
provide scheduling information. This patch re-writes the tablegen file
to define the scheduling information in the new SchedModel way, which
can bring improvements to some benchmarks.

This patch changes the PowerPC backend to generate VSX load/store instructions
for all vector loads/stores on Power8 and earlier (LE) instead of VMX
load/store instructions. The reason for this change is because VMX instructions
require the vector to be 16-byte aligned. So, a vector load/store will fail with
VMX instructions if the vector is misaligned. Also, `gcc` generates VSX
instructions in this situation which allow for unaligned access but require a
swap instruction after loading/before storing. This is not an issue for BE
because we already emit VSX instructions since no swap is required. And this is
not an issue on Power9 and up since we have access to `lxv[x]`/`stxv[x]` which
allow for unaligned access and do not require swaps.
This patch also delays the VSX load/store for LE combines until after
LegalizeOps to prioritize other load/store combines.

This patch exploits the prefixed load and store instructions utilizing the
refactored load/store implementation introduced in D93370.
Prefixed load and store instructions are emitted whenever we are loading or
storing a value with an offset that fits into a 34-bit signed immediate.
Patterns for the prefixed load and stores are added in this patch, as well as
the implementation that detects when we are loading and storing a value with an
offset that fits in 34-bits.

This patch includes the following updates to the load/store refactoring effort introduced in D93370:
- Update various VSX patterns that use to "force" an XForm, to instead just XForm.
This allows the ability for the patterns to compute the most optimal addressing
mode (and to produce a DForm instruction when possible)
- Update pattern and test case for the LXVD2X/STXVD2X intrinsics
- Update LIT test cases that use to use the XForm instruction to use the DForm instruction
