This commit modifies the way the machine basic blocks are serialized - now the
machine basic blocks are serialized using a custom syntax instead of relying on
YAML primitives. Instead of using YAML mappings to represent the individual
machine basic blocks in a machine function's body, the new syntax uses a single
YAML block scalar which contains all of the machine basic blocks and
instructions for that function.
This is an example of a function's body that uses the old syntax:
body:
- id: 0
name: entry
instructions:
- '%eax = MOV32r0 implicit-def %eflags'
- 'RETQ %eax'
...
The same body is now written like this:
body: |
bb.0.entry:
%eax = MOV32r0 implicit-def %eflags
RETQ %eax
...
This syntax change is motivated by the fact that the bundled machine
instructions didn't map that well to the old syntax which was using a single
YAML sequence to store all of the machine instructions in a block. The bundled
machine instructions internally use flags like BundledPred and BundledSucc to
determine the bundles, and serializing them as MI flags using the old syntax
would have had a negative impact on the readability and the ease of editing
for MIR files. The new syntax allows me to serialize the bundled machine
instructions using a block construct without relying on the internal flags,
for example:
BUNDLE implicit-def dead %itstate, implicit-def %s1 ... {
t2IT 1, 24, implicit-def %itstate
%s1 = VMOVS killed %s0, 1, killed %cpsr, implicit killed %itstate
}
This commit also converts the MIR testcases to the new syntax. I developed
a script that can convert from the old syntax to the new one. I will post the
script on the llvm-commits mailing list in the thread for this commit.

This commit serializes machine basic block operands. The
machine basic block operands use the following syntax:
%bb.<id>[.<name>]
This commit also modifies the YAML representation for the
machine basic blocks - a new, required field 'id' is added
to the MBB YAML mapping.
The id is used to resolve the MBB references to the
actual MBBs. And while the name of the MBB can be
included in a MBB reference, this name isn't used to
resolve MBB references - as it's possible that multiple
MBBs will reference the same BB and thus they will have the
same name. If the name is specified, the parser will verify
that it is equal to the name of the MBB with the specified id.

This commit translates the source locations for MIParser diagnostics from
the locations in the machine instruction string to the locations in the
MIR file.
