There are many information that can be used for tuning, like
alignments, cache line size, etc. But we can't make all of them
`SubtargetFeature` because some of them are not with enumerable
value, for example, `PrefetchDistance` used by `LoopDataPrefetch`.
In this patch, a searchable table `RISCVTuneInfoTable` is added,
in which each entry contains the CPU name and all tune information
defined in `RISCVTuneInfo`. Each field of `RISCVTuneInfo` should
have a default value and processor definitions can override the
default value via `let` statements.
We don't need to define a `RISCVTuneInfo` for each processor and
it will use the default value (which is for `generic`) if no
`RISCVTuneInfo` defined.
For processors in the same series, a subclass can inherit from
`RISCVTuneInfo` and override the fields. And we can also override
the fields in processor definitions if there are some differences
in the same processor series.
When initilizing `RISCVSubtarget`, we will use `TuneCPU` as the
key to serach the tune info table. So, the behavior here is if
we don't specify the tune CPU, we will use specified `CPU`, which
is expected I think.
This patch almost undoes 61ab106, in which I added tune features
of preferred function/loop alignments. More tune information can
be added in the future.
