Flag -show-encoding enables the printing of instruction encodings as part of the
the instruction info view.
Example (with flags -mtriple=x86_64-- -mcpu=btver2):
Instruction Info:
[1]: #uOps
[2]: Latency
[3]: RThroughput
[4]: MayLoad
[5]: MayStore
[6]: HasSideEffects (U)
[7]: Encoding Size
[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Encodings: Instructions:
1 2 1.00 4 c5 f0 59 d0 vmulps %xmm0, %xmm1, %xmm2
1 4 1.00 4 c5 eb 7c da vhaddps %xmm2, %xmm2, %xmm3
1 4 1.00 4 c5 e3 7c e3 vhaddps %xmm3, %xmm3, %xmm4
In this example, column Encoding Size is the size in bytes of the instruction
encoding. Column Encodings reports the actual instruction encodings as byte
sequences in hex (objdump style).
The computation of encodings is done by a utility class named mca::CodeEmitter.
In future, I plan to expose the CodeEmitter to the instruction builder, so that
information about instruction encoding sizes can be used by the simulator. That
would be a first step towards simulating the throughput from the decoders in the
hardware frontend.

This patch adds a new llvm-mca flag named -print-imm-hex.
By default, the instruction printer prints immediate operands as decimals. Flag
-print-imm-hex enables the instruction printer to print those operands in hex.
This patch also adds support for MASM binary and hex literal numbers (example
0FFh, 101b).
Added tests to verify the behavior of the new flag. Tests also verify that masm
numeric literal operands are now recognized.

Summary:
This patch is part of a patch series to add support for FileCheck
numeric expressions. This specific patch lift the restriction for a
numeric expression to either be a variable definition or a numeric
expression to try to match.
This commit allows a numeric variable to be set to the result of the
evaluation of a numeric expression after it has been matched
successfully. When it happens, the variable is allowed to be used on
the same line since its value is known at match time.
It also makes use of this possibility to reuse the parsing code to
parse a command-line definition by crafting a mirror string of the
-D option with the equal sign replaced by a colon sign, e.g. for option
'-D#NUMVAL=10' it creates the string
'-D#NUMVAL=10 (parsed as [[#NUMVAL:10]])' where the numeric expression
is parsed to define NUMVAL. This result in a few tests needing updating
for the location diagnostics on top of the tests for the new feature.
It also enables empty numeric expression which match any number without
defining a variable. This is done here rather than in commit #5 of the
patch series because it requires to dissociate automatic regex insertion
in RegExStr from variable definition which would make commit #5 even
bigger than it already is.

Previously, the llvm-readelf documentation was essentially just a list
of differences to llvm-readobj. Since llvm-readelf is the more likely
goto tool for many people migrating to the LLVM toolchain, it seems like
it would be helpful to document all the switches in the llvm-readelf
document too. This change expands the options listed accordingly.
Additionally, they are unlikely to care what the differences are to
llvm-readobj, since they won't be familiar with the latter as there is
no GNU equivalent, so this change moves the "differences" section to
llvm-readobj's documentation.

Sphinx allows for definitions of command-line options using
`.. option <name>` and references to those options via `:option:<name>`.
However, it looks like there is no scoping of these options by default,
meaning that links can end up pointing to incorrect documents. See for
example the llvm-mca document, which contains references to -o that,
prior to this patch, pointed to a different document. What's worse is
that these links appear to be non-deterministic in which one is picked
(on my machine, some references end up pointing to opt, whereas on the
live docs, they point to llvm-dwarfdump, for example).
The fix is to add the .. program <name> tag. This essentially namespaces
the options (definitions and references) to the named program, ensuring
that the links are kept correct.

There were a number of issues with the llvm-readobj documentation. The
following points were raised in https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42255,
and have been fixed in this patch:
1. The description section claimed "The tool and its output is
primarily designed for use in FileCheck-based tests" which is not
really the case any more.
2. The documentation used single-dash long options for option names,
but references in the help text to other options exclusively used
double-dashes. Fixed by standardising on double-dashes for all
long-form options.
3. The majority of options available and in the help text were not
present in the documentation. This patch adds them.
4. Several aliases, both long and short, were missing, e.g. --relocs.
Additionally, this patch improves the documentation by:
1. Splitting the options into categories based on the file format they
are specific to.
2. Updating the Exit Status section to correctly mention that errors
lead to a non-zero exit code.
3. Adding a See Also section referencing other similar LLVM tools.
4. Improving/correcting some of the descriptions of options that did
not quite match up with what llvm-readobj does.
