[RISCV WIP] Tablegen-driven Instruction Compression. This patch implements a tablegen-driven Instruction Compression mechanism for generating RISCV compressed instructions (C Extension) from the expanded instruction form. This tablegen backend processes CompressPat declarations in a td file and generates all the compile-time and runtime checks required to validate the declarations, validate the input operands and generate correct instuctions. The checks include validating register operands, immediate operands, fixed register operands and fixed immediate operands. Example: class CompressPat<dag input, dag output> { dag Input = input; dag Output = output; list<Predicate> Predicates = []; } let Predicates = [HasStdExtC] in { def : CompressPat<(ADD GPRNoX0:$rs1, GPRNoX0:$rs1, GPRNoX0:$rs2), (C_ADD GPRNoX0:$rs1, GPRNoX0:$rs2)>; } The result is an auto-generated header file 'RISCVGenCompressEmitter.inc' which exports two functions for compressing/uncompressing MCInst instructions, plus some helper functions: bool compressInst(MCInst& OutInst, const MCInst &MI, const MCSubtargetInfo &STI, MCContext &Context); bool uncompressInst(MCInst& OutInst, const MCInst &MI, const MCRegisterInfo &MRI, const MCSubtargetInfo &STI); The clients that include this auto-generated header file and invoke these functions can compress an instruction before emitting it, in the target-specific ASM or ELF streamer, or can uncompress an instruction before printing it, when the expanded instruction format aliases is favored. - RISCVAsmParser::MatchAndEmitInstruction which tries to compress instructions before emitting the instruction in the Asm Streamer. - RISCVInstPrinter::printInst, which will try to uncompress instructions prior to printing instructions to print the expanded version of instructions, if aliases are enabled. - RISCVELFStreamer::EmitInstruction which will try to compress instructions before emitting the instruction in the Elf Streamer. - Clients change here: https://reviews.llvm.org/D41932
