Tim Northover c807a17a9b TableGen: permit non-leaf ComplexPattern uses ...

This allows the results of a ComplexPattern check to be distributed to separate
named Operands, instead of the current system where all results must apply (and
match perfectly) with a single Operand.

For example, if "some_addrmode" is a ComplexPattern producing two results, you
can write:

   def : Pat<(load (some_addrmode GPR64:$base, imm:$offset)),
             (INST GPR64:$base, imm:$offset)>;

This should allow neater instruction definitions in TableGen that don't put all
possible aspects of addressing into a single operand, but are still usable with
relatively simple C++ CodeGen idioms.
