reads/writes. NFCI
This avoids a heap allocation most of the times.
This patch gives a small but consistent 3% speedup on a release build (up to ~5%
on a debug build).

This patch fixes an invalid memory read introduced by r346487.
Before this patch, partial register write had to query the latency of the
dependent full register write by calling a method on the full write descriptor.
However, if the full write is from an already retired instruction, chances are
that the EntryStage already reclaimed its memory.
In some parial register write tests, valgrind was reporting an invalid
memory read.
This change fixes the invalid memory access problem. Writes are now responsible
for tracking dependent partial register writes, and notify them in the event of
instruction issued.
That means, partial register writes no longer need to query their associated
full write to check when they are ready to execute.
Added test X86/BtVer2/partial-reg-update-7.s

Summary: This allows to remove `using namespace llvm;` in those *.cpp files
When we want to revisit the decision (everything resides in llvm::mca::*) in the future, we can move things to a nested namespace of llvm::mca::, to conceptually make them separate from the rest of llvm::mca::*

Before this change, the lowering of instructions from llvm::MCInst to
mca::Instruction was done as part of the first stage of the pipeline (i.e. the
FetchStage). In particular, FetchStage was responsible for picking the next
instruction from the source sequence, and lower it to an mca::Instruction with
the help of an object of class InstrBuilder.
The dependency on InstrBuilder was problematic for a number of reasons. Class
InstrBuilder only knows how to lower from llvm::MCInst to mca::Instruction.
That means, it is hard to support a different scenario where instructions
in input are not instances of class llvm::MCInst. Even if we managed to
specialize InstrBuilder, and generalize most of its internal logic, the
dependency on InstrBuilder in FetchStage would have caused more troubles (other
than complicating the pipeline logic).
With this patch, the lowering step is done before the pipeline is run. The
pipeline is no longer responsible for lowering from MCInst to mca::Instruction.
As a consequence of this, the FetchStage no longer needs to interact with an
InstrBuilder. The mca::SourceMgr class now simply wraps a reference to a
sequence of mca::Instruction objects.
This simplifies the logic of FetchStage, and increases the usability of it. As
a result, on a debug build, we see a 7-9% speedup; on a release build, the
speedup is around 3-4%.

read/write information is stored.
This patch introduces a new base class for Instruction named InstructionBase.
Class InstructionBase is responsible for tracking data dependencies with the
help of ReadState and WriteState objects. Class Instruction now derives from
InstructionBase, and adds extra information related to the `InstrStage` as well
as the `RCUTokenID`.
ReadState and WriteState objects are no longer unique pointers. This avoids
extra heap allocation and pointer checks that weren't really needed. Now, those
objects are simply stored into SmallVectors. We use a SmallVector instead of a
std::vector because we expect most instructions to only have a very small number
of reads and writes. By using a simple SmallVector we also avoid extra heap
allocations most of the time.
In a debug build, this improves the performance of llvm-mca by roughly 10% (I
still have to verify the impact in performance on a release build).

This patch teaches class RegisterFile how to analyze register writes from
instructions that are move elimination candidates.
In particular, it teaches it how to check if a move can be effectively eliminated
by the underlying PRF, and (if necessary) how to perform move elimination.
The long term goal is to allow processor models to describe instructions that
are valid move elimination candidates.
The idea is to let register file definitions in tablegen declare if/when moves
can be eliminated.
This patch is a non functional change.
The logic that performs move elimination is currently disabled. A future patch
will add support for move elimination in the processor models, and enable this
new code path.

We are already "using" namespace llvm in all the files modified by this change.

accordingly. NFC.
Summary:
This patch introduces llvm-mca as a library. The driver (llvm-mca.cpp), views, and stats, are not part of the library.
Those are separate components that are not required for the functioning of llvm-mca.
The directory has been organized as follows:
All library source files now reside in:
- `lib/HardwareUnits/` - All subclasses of HardwareUnit (these represent the simulated hardware components of a backend).
(LSUnit does not inherit from HardwareUnit, but Scheduler does which uses LSUnit).
- `lib/Stages/` - All subclasses of the pipeline stages.
- `lib/` - This is the root of the library and contains library code that does not fit into the Stages or HardwareUnit subdirs.
All library header files now reside in the `include` directory and mimic the same layout as the `lib` directory mentioned above.
In the (near) future we would like to move the library (include and lib) contents from tools and into the core of llvm somewhere.
That change would allow various analysis and optimization passes to make use of MCA functionality for things like cost modeling.
I left all of the non-library code just where it has always been, in the root of the llvm-mca directory.
The include directives for the non-library source file have been updated to refer to the llvm-mca library headers.
I updated the llvm-mca/CMakeLists.txt file to include the library headers, but I made the non-library code
explicitly reference the library's 'include' directory. Once we eventually (hopefully) migrate the MCA library
components into llvm the include directives used by the non-library source files will be updated to point to the
proper location in llvm.
