beqc and bnec cannot have $rs == $rt. Inhibit compact branch creation
if that would occur.

Restrict the creation of compact branches so that they meet the ISA encoding
requirements. Notably do not permit $zero to be used as a operand for compact
branches and ensure that some other branches fulfil the requirement that
rs != rt.
Fixup cases where $rs > $rt for bnec and beqc.

This patch adds the commandline option -mips-compact-branches={never,optimal,always),
which controls how LLVM generates compact branches for MIPS targets. By
default, the compact branch policy is 'optimal' where LLVM will (hopefully)
pick the optimal branch for any situation. The 'never' policy will disable
the generation of compact branches and 'always' will generate compact branches
wherever possible.

Alias 'jic $reg, 0' to 'jrc $reg' and 'jialc $reg, 0' to 'jalrc $reg' like
binutils.
This patch was previous committed as r266055 as seemed to have caused some spurious
test failures. They did not reappear after further local testing.

This patch adds support for compact jumps similiar to the previous compact
branch support for MIPSR6. Unlike compact branches, compact jumps do not
have a forbidden slot.
As MipsInstrInfo::getEquivalentCompactForm can determine the correct
expansion for jumps and branches for both microMIPS and MIPSR6, remove the
unnecessary distinction in the delay slot filler.

Summary:
MIPSR6 introduces a class of branches called compact branches. Unlike the
traditional MIPS branches which have a delay slot, compact branches do not
have a delay slot. The instruction following the compact branch is only
executed if the branch is not taken and must not be a branch.
It works by generating compact branches for MIPS32R6 when the delay slot
filler cannot fill a delay slot. Then, inspecting the generated code for
forbidden slot hazards (a compact branch with an adjacent branch or other
CTI) and inserting nops to clear this hazard.
