Currently, our diagnostics for assembly operands are not consistent.
Some start with (for example) "immediate operand must be ...",
and some with "operand must be an immediate ...". I think the latter
form is preferable for a few reasons:
* It's unambiguous that it is referring to the expected type of operand, not
the type the user provided. For example, the user could provide an register
operand, and get a message taking about an operand is if it is already an
immediate, just not in the accepted range.
* It allows us to have a consistent style once we add diagnostics for operands
that could take two forms, for example a label or pc-relative memory operand.

This converts the ARM AsmParser to use the new assembly matcher error
reporting mechanism, which allows errors to be reported for multiple
instruction encodings when it is ambiguous which one the user intended
to use.
By itself this doesn't improve many error messages, because we don't have
diagnostic text for most operand types, but as we add that then this will allow
more of those diagnostic strings to be used when they are relevant.

- we are now using immediate AsmOperands so that the range check functions are
tablegen'ed.
- Big bonus is that error messages become much more accurate, i.e. instead of a
useless "invalid operand" error message it will not say that the immediate
operand must in range [x,y], which is why regression tests needed updating.
More tablegen operand descriptions could probably benefit from using
immediateAsmOperand, but this is a first good step to get rid of most of the
nearly identical range check functions. I will address the remaining immediate
operands in next clean ups.

I looked into adding a warning / error for this to FileCheck, but there doesn't
seem to be a good way to avoid it triggering on the instances of it in RUN lines.

v8.1a is renamed to architecture, following current entity naming approach.
Excess generic cpu is removed. Intended use: "generic" cpu with "v8.1a" subtarget feature

The "|&" operator isn't POSIX, so it can fail depending on the host's
default shell. Avoid it.
There were also a couple of places that did "2>1", but this creates a
file called "1". They clearly meant "2>&1".
