BackendStatistics view.
This patch introduces two new callbacks in the event listener interface to
handle the "buffered resource reserved" event and the "buffered resource
released" event. Every time a buffered resource is used, an event is generated.
Before this patch, the Scheduler (with the help of the ResourceManager) was
responsible for tracking the scheduler's queue usage. However, that design
forced the Scheduler to 'publish' scheduler's queue pressure information through
the Backend interface.
The goal of this patch is to break the dependency between the BackendStatistics
view, and the Backend. Now the Scheduler knows how to notify "buffer
reserved/released" events. The scheduler's queue usage analysis has been moved
to the BackendStatistics.

This patch introduces a new class named HWStallEvent (see HWEventListener.h),
and updates the event listener interface. A HWStallEvent represents a pipeline
stall caused by the lack of hardware resources. Similarly to HWInstructionEvent,
the event type is an unsigned, and the exact meaning depends on the subtarget.
At the moment, HWStallEvent supports a few generic dispatch events.
The main goals of this patch is to remove the logic that counts dispatch stalls
from the DispatchUnit to the BackendStatistics view.
Previously, DispatchUnit was responsible for counting and classifying dispatch
stall events. With this patch, we delegate the task of counting and classifying
stall events to the listeners (i.e. in our case, it is view
"BackendStatistics"). So, the DispatchUnit doesn't have to do extra
(unnecessary) bookkeeping.
This patch also helps futher simplifying the Backend interface. Now class
BackendStatistics no longer has to query the Backend interface to obtain the
number of dispatch stalls. As a consequence, we can get rid of all the
'getNumXXX()' methods from class Backend.
The long term goal is to remove all the remaining dependencies between the
Backend and the BackendStatistics interface.

no scheduler resources were consumed.

This change removes method Backend::getProcResourceMasks() and simplifies some
logic in the Views. This effectively removes yet another dependency between the
views and the Backend.
No functional change intended.

This allows the customization of the performance report.
Users can specify their own custom sequence of views.
Each view contributes a portion of the performance report generated by the
BackendPrinter.
Internally, class BackendPrinter keeps a sequence of views; views are printed
out in sequence when method 'printReport()' is called.
This patch addresses one of the two review comments from Clement in D43951.

llvm-mca is an LLVM based performance analysis tool that can be used to
statically measure the performance of code, and to help triage potential
problems with target scheduling models.
llvm-mca uses information which is already available in LLVM (e.g. scheduling
models) to statically measure the performance of machine code in a specific cpu.
Performance is measured in terms of throughput as well as processor resource
consumption. The tool currently works for processors with an out-of-order
backend, for which there is a scheduling model available in LLVM.
The main goal of this tool is not just to predict the performance of the code
when run on the target, but also help with diagnosing potential performance
issues.
Given an assembly code sequence, llvm-mca estimates the IPC (instructions per
cycle), as well as hardware resources pressure. The analysis and reporting style
were mostly inspired by the IACA tool from Intel.
