Sometimes an developer would like to have more control over cmov vs branch. We have unpredictable metadata in LLVM IR, but currently it is ignored by X86 backend. Propagate this metadata and avoid cmov->branch conversion in X86CmovConversion for cmov with this metadata.
Example:
```
int MaxIndex(int n, int *a) {
int t = 0;
for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
// cmov is converted to branch by X86CmovConversion
if (a[i] > a[t]) t = i;
}
return t;
}
int MaxIndex2(int n, int *a) {
int t = 0;
for (int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
// cmov is preserved
if (__builtin_unpredictable(a[i] > a[t])) t = i;
}
return t;
}
```

The new methods return a range for easier iteration. Use them everywhere
instead of getImplicitUses, getNumImplicitUses, getImplicitDefs and
getNumImplicitDefs. A future patch will remove the old methods.
In some use cases the new methods are less efficient because they always
have to scan the whole uses/defs array to count its length, but that
will be fixed in a future patch by storing the number of implicit
uses/defs explicitly in MCInstrDesc. At that point there will be no need
to 0-terminate the arrays.

Use deduction guides instead of helper functions.
The only non-automatic changes have been:
1. ArrayRef(some_uint8_pointer, 0) needs to be changed into ArrayRef(some_uint8_pointer, (size_t)0) to avoid an ambiguous call with ArrayRef((uint8_t*), (uint8_t*))
2. CVSymbol sym(makeArrayRef(symStorage)); needed to be rewritten as CVSymbol sym{ArrayRef(symStorage)}; otherwise the compiler is confused and thinks we have a (bad) function prototype. There was a few similar situation across the codebase.
3. ADL doesn't seem to work the same for deduction-guides and functions, so at some point the llvm namespace must be explicitly stated.
4. The "reference mode" of makeArrayRef(ArrayRef<T> &) that acts as no-op is not supported (a constructor cannot achieve that).
Per reviewers' comment, some useless makeArrayRef have been removed in the process.
This is a follow-up to https://reviews.llvm.org/D140896 that introduced
the deduction guides.

With D134950, targets get notified when a virtual register is created and/or
cloned. Targets can do the needful with the delegate callback. AMDGPU propagates
the virtual register flags maintained in the target file itself. They are useful
to identify a certain type of machine operands while inserting spill stores and
reloads. Since RegAllocFast spills the physical register itself, there is no way
its virtual register can be mapped back to retrieve the flags. It can be solved
by passing the virtual register as an additional argument. This argument has no
use when the spill interfaces are called during the greedy allocator or even the
PrologEpilogInserter and can pass a null register in such cases.

Machine combiner supports generic reassociation only of associative and
commutative instructions, for example (A + X) + Y => (X + Y) + A. However, we
can extend this generic support to handle patterns like
(X + A) - Y => (X - Y) + A), where `-` is the inverse of `+`.
This patch adds interface functions to process reassociation patterns of
associative/commutative instructions and their inverse variants with minimal
changes in backends.

This patch adds the following NFC fixes to PPCInstrInfo.cpp when getting the DefMI:
- Fix documentation error to state that we want to flag a use of register
between the def and the MI (in post-RA)
- Setting the DefMI to null if the DefMI is neither an LI or and ADDI
(while still being in SSA form).
In terms of setting the DefMI to null, this change aims to account for the
scenario of when we end up going through all operands on the machine instruction
MI and updating OpNoForForwarding accordingly once an ADDI is found as the DefMI.
It is possible that once an ADDI is found, we will continue to go through all
operands in attempts to find an LI, but end up looking at every operand until
we reach the end if we have not yet found an LI. In the case where the end is
reached and we never end up finding an LI/ADDI, DefMI would be pointing to the
last operand of MI while OpNoForForwarding would still be pointing at the
previous ADDI operand found. We reset DefMI to avoid having DefMI point to an
instruction that differs from the one represented by OpNoForForwarding.

This patch teaches getStoreOpcodesForSpillArray and

isLoadFromStackSlot and isStoreToStackSlot can use llvm::is_contained.
Summary: We currently optimize the comparison only in SSA, therefore we will miss some optimization opportunities where the input of comparison is lowered from COPY in post-RA.
Ie. ExpandPostRA::LowerCopy is called after PPCInstrInfo::optimizeCompareInstr.
This patch optimizes the comparison in post-RA and only the cases that compare against zero can be handled.
D131374 converts the comparison and its user to a compare against zero with the appropriate predicate on the branch, which creates additional opportunities for this patch.

doesn't happened in peephole optimizer.
Summary: Converting a comparison against 1 or -1 into a comparison
against 0 can exploit record-form instructions for comparison optimization.
The conversion will happen only when a record-form instruction can be used
to replace the comparison during the peephole optimizer (see function optimizeCompareInstr).
In post-RA, we also want to optimize the comparison by using the record
form (see D131873) and it requires additional dataflow analysis to reliably
find uses of the CR register set.
It's reasonable to common the conversion for both peephole optimizer and
post-RA optimizer.
Converting to comparison against zero even when the optimization doesn't
happened in peephole optimizer may create additional opportunities for the
post-RA optimization.

This patch fixes the following two bugs in `PPCInstrInfo::isSignOrZeroExtended` helper, which is used from sign-/zero-extension elimination in PPCMIPeephole pass.
- Registers defined by load with update (e.g. LBZU) were identified as already sign or zero-extended. But it is true only for the first def (loaded value) and not for the second def (i.e. updated pointer).
- Registers defined by ORIS/XORIS were identified as already sign-extended. But, it is not true for sign extension depending on the immediate (while it is ok for zero extension).
To handle the first case, the parameter for the helpers is changed from `MachineInstr` to a register number to distinguish first and second defs. Also, this patch moves the initialization of PPCMIPeepholePass to allow mir test case.

This was stored in LiveIntervals, but not actually used for anything
related to LiveIntervals. It was only used in one check for if a load
instruction is rematerializable. I also don't think this was entirely
correct, since it was implicitly assuming constant loads are also
dereferenceable.
Remove this and rely only on the invariant+dereferenceable flags in
the memory operand. Set the flag based on the AA query upfront. This
should have the same net benefit, but has the possible disadvantage of
making this AA query nonlazy.
Preserve the behavior of assuming pointsToConstantMemory implying
dereferenceable for now, but maybe this should be changed.

Currently, the floating point instructions that depend on
rounding mode are correctly marked in the PPC back end with
an implicit use of the RM register. Similarly, instructions
that explicitly define the register are marked with an
implicit def of the same register. So for the most part,
RM-using code won't be moved across RM-setting instructions.
However, calls are not marked as RM-setting instructions so
code can be moved across calls. This is generally desired,
but so is the ability to turn off this behaviour with an
appropriate option - and -frounding-math really should be
that option.
This patch provides a set of call instructions (for direct
and indirect calls) that are marked with an implicit def of
the RM register. These will be used for calls that are marked
with the strictfp attribute.

When a D-Form instruction is fed by an add-immediate, we attempt
to merge the two immediates to form a single displacement so we
can remove the add-immediate.
However, we don't check whether the new displacement fits into
a 16-bit signed immediate field early enough. Namely, we do a
sign-extend from 16 bits first which will discard high bits and
then we check whether the result is a 16-bit signed immediate.
It of course will always be.
Move the check prior to the sign extend to ensure we are checking
the correct value.
