[AArch64] Refactor AArch64InstrInfo::isAsCheapAsAMove (NFC)

    - remove `FeatureCustomCheapAsMoveHandling`: when you have target
      features affecting `isAsCheapAsAMove` that can be given on command
      line or passed via attributes, then every sub-target effectively has
      custom handling

    - remove special handling of `FMOVD0`/etc: `FVMOV` with an immediate
      zero operand is never[1] more expensive tha an `FMOV` with a
      register operand.

    - remove special handling of `COPY` - copy is trivially as cheap as
      itself

    - make the function default to the `MachineInstr` attribute
      `isAsCheapAsAMove`

    - remove special handling of `ANDWrr`/etc and of `ANDWri`/etc: the
      fallback `MachineInstr` attribute is already non-zero.

    - remove special handling of `ADDWri`/`SUBWri`/`ADDXri`/`SUBXri` -
      there are always[1] one cycle latency with maximum (for the
      micro-architecture) throughput

    - check if `MOVi32Imm`/`MOVi64Imm` can be expanded into a "cheap"
      sequence of instructions

      There is a little twist with determining whether a
      MOVi32Imm`/`MOVi64Imm` is "as-cheap-as-a-move". Even if one of these
      pseudo-instructions needs to be expanded to more than one MOVZ,
      MOVN, or MOVK instructions, materialisation may be preferrable to
      allocating a register to hold the constant. For the moment a cutoff
      at two instructions seems like a reasonable compromise.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.

For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

Getting in touch

Join the LLVM Discourse forums, Discord chat, or #llvm IRC channel on OFTC.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
