width. Add a min_vector_width function attribute and tag all x86 instrinsics with it
This is part of an ongoing attempt at making 512 bit vectors illegal in the X86 backend type legalizer due to CPU frequency penalties associated with wide vectors on Skylake Server CPUs. We want the loop vectorizer to be able to emit IR containing wide vectors as intermediate operations in vectorized code and allow these wide vectors to be legalized to 256 bits by the X86 backend even though we are targetting a CPU that supports 512 bit vectors. This is similar to what happens with an AVX2 CPU, the vectorizer can emit wide vectors and the backend will split them. We want this splitting behavior, but still be able to use new Skylake instructions that work on 256-bit vectors and support things like masking and gather/scatter.
Of course if the user uses explicit vector code in their source code we need to not split those operations. Especially if they have used any of the 512-bit vector intrinsics from immintrin.h. And we need to make it so that merely using the intrinsics produces the expected code in order to be backwards compatible.
To support this goal, this patch adds a new IR function attribute "min-legal-vector-width" that can indicate the need for a minimum vector width to be legal in the backend. We need to ensure this attribute is set to the largest vector width needed by any intrinsics from immintrin.h that the function uses. The inliner will be reponsible for merging this attribute when a function is inlined. We may also need a way to limit inlining in the future as well, but we can discuss that in the future.
To make things more complicated, there are two different ways intrinsics are implemented in immintrin.h. Either as an always_inline function containing calls to builtins(can be target specific or target independent) or vector extension code. Or as a macro wrapper around a taget specific builtin. I believe I've removed all cases where the macro was around a target independent builtin.
To support the always_inline function case this patch adds attribute((min_vector_width(128))) that can be used to tag these functions with their vector width. All x86 intrinsic functions that operate on vectors have been tagged with this attribute.
To support the macro case, all x86 specific builtins have also been tagged with the vector width that they require. Use of any builtin with this property will implicitly increase the min_vector_width of the function that calls it. I've done this as a new property in the attribute string for the builtin rather than basing it on the type string so that we can opt into it on a per builtin basis and avoid any impact to target independent builtins.
There will be future work to support vectors passed as function arguments and supporting inline assembly. And whatever else we can find that isn't covered by this patch.
Special thanks to Chandler who suggested this direction and reviewed a preview version of this patch. And thanks to Eric Christopher who has had many conversations with me about this issue.

This is similar to the LLVM change https://reviews.llvm.org/D46290.
We've been running doxygen with the autobrief option for a couple of
years now. This makes the \brief markers into our comments
redundant. Since they are a visual distraction and we don't want to
encourage more \brief markers in new code either, this patch removes
them all.

Tagged instruction names with <c> INSTR_NAME </c> to display them in typewriter font.
In the past, \c command was used, unfortunately it applied to only one word.
<c> .. </c> has the same meaning, but applies to all words in between the tags.

Improved doxygen comments for __wmmintrin_pclmul.h and ammintrin.h intrinsics by taagging parameter names with \a doxygen command to display parameters in italics.
Formatted comments to fit into 80 chars.

I made several changes for consistency with the rest of x86 instrinsics header files. Some of these changes help to render doxygen comments better.
1. avxintrin.h – Moved the opening bracket on a separate line for several
intrinsics (for consistency with the rest of the intrinsics).
2. emmintrin.h - Moved the doxygen comment next to the body of the function;
- Added braces after extern "C" even though there is only
one declaration each time
3. xmmintrin.h - Moved the doxygen comment next to the body of the function;
- Added intrinsic prototypes for a couple of macro definitions
into the doxygen comment;
- Added braces after extern "C" even though there is only one
declaration each time
4. ammintrin.h – Removed extra line between the doxygen comment and the body
of the functions (for consistency with the rest of the files).
Desk reviewed by Paul Robinson.

(1) Removed \code.. \endcode tags around the instruction name. This matches the doxygen format for all other intrinsics.
(2) Did a better formatting for the comments (to fit into 80 columns more compactly).

This involved removing the conditional inclusion and replacing them
with target attributes matching the original conditional inclusion
and checks. The testcase update removes the macro checks for each
file and replaces them with usage of the __target__ attribute, e.g.:
int __attribute__((__target__(("sse3")))) foo(int a) {
_mm_mwait(0, 0);
return 4;
}
This usage does require the enclosing function have the requisite
__target__ attribute for inlining and code generation - also for
any macro intrinsic uses in the enclosing function. There's no change
for existing uses of the intrinsic headers.

This is a precursor to changing them to use the new target attribute
code.

This is a clean-room implementation based on public documentation and
I tried to validate it as much as possible against gcc.
