Summary:
As disscused in https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43219,
i believe it may be somewhat useful to show //some// aggregates
over all the sea of statistics provided.
Example:
```
Average Wait times (based on the timeline view):
[0]: Executions
[1]: Average time spent waiting in a scheduler's queue
[2]: Average time spent waiting in a scheduler's queue while ready
[3]: Average time elapsed from WB until retire stage
[0] [1] [2] [3]
0. 3 1.0 1.0 4.7 vmulps %xmm0, %xmm1, %xmm2
1. 3 2.7 0.0 2.3 vhaddps %xmm2, %xmm2, %xmm3
2. 3 6.0 0.0 0.0 vhaddps %xmm3, %xmm3, %xmm4
3 3.2 0.3 2.3 <total>
```
I.e. we average the averages.

generated by the SummaryView.
This patch adds two new fields to the perf report generated by the SummaryView.
Fields are now logically organized into two small groups; only the second group
contains throughput indicators.
Example:
```
Iterations: 100
Instructions: 300
Total Cycles: 414
Total uOps: 700
Dispatch Width: 4
uOps Per Cycle: 1.69
IPC: 0.72
Block RThroughput: 4.0
```
This patch also updates the docs for llvm-mca.
Due to the nature of this change, several tests in the tools/llvm-mca directory
were affected, and had to be updated using script `update_mca_test_checks.py`.

in the Instruction Info View. NFC
This makes easier to identify changes in the instruction info flags. It also
helps spotting potential regressions similar to the one recently introduced at
r336728.
Using the same character to mark MayLoad/MayStore/HasSideEffects is problematic
for llvm-lit. When pattern matching substrings, llvm-lit consumes tabs and
spaces. A change in position of the flag marker may not trigger a test failure.
This patch only changes the character used for flag `hasSideEffects`. The reason
why I didn't touch other flags is because I want to avoid spamming the mailing
because of the massive diff due to the numerous tests affected by this change.
In future, each instruction flag should be associated with a different character
in the Instruction Info View.

the upper portion of a super-register.
This patch teaches llvm-mca how to identify register writes that implicitly zero
the upper portion of a super-register.
On X86-64, a general purpose register is implemented in hardware as a 64-bit
register. Quoting the Intel 64 Software Developer's Manual: "an update to the
lower 32 bits of a 64 bit integer register is architecturally defined to zero
extend the upper 32 bits". Also, a write to an XMM register performed by an AVX
instruction implicitly zeroes the upper 128 bits of the aliasing YMM register.
This patch adds a new method named clearsSuperRegisters to the MCInstrAnalysis
interface to help identify instructions that implicitly clear the upper portion
of a super-register. The rest of the patch teaches llvm-mca how to use that new
method to obtain the information, and update the register dependencies
accordingly.
I compared the kernels from tests clear-super-register-1.s and
clear-super-register-2.s against the output from perf on btver2. Previously
there was a large discrepancy between the estimated IPC and the measured IPC.
Now the differences are mostly in the noise.

the upper portion of a super-register.
When the destination register of a XOP instruction is an XMM register, bits
[255:128] of the corresponding YMM register are cleared.
When the destination register of a EVEX encoded instruction is an XMM/YMM
register, the upper bits of the corresponding ZMM are cleared.
On processors that feature AVX512, a write to an XMM registers always clears the
upper portion of the corresponding ZMM register if the instruction is VEX or
EVEX encoded.
These new tests show some interesting cases which aren't correctly analyzed by
llvm-mca. The lack of knowledge related to the implicit update on the
super-registers is addressed by D48225.
