[ARM]: Assign cost of scaling used in addressing mode for ARM cores

This patch assigns cost of the scaling used in addressing.
On many ARM cores, a negated register offset takes longer than a
non-negated register offset, in a register-offset addressing mode.

For instance:

LDR R0, [R1, R2 LSL #2]
LDR R0, [R1, -R2 LSL #2]

Above, (1) takes less cycles than (2).

By assigning appropriate scaling factor cost, we enable the LLVM
to make the right trade-offs in the optimization and code-selection phase.
