[UpdateLLCTestChecks] Add support for isel debug output in update_llc_test_checks.py
Add a check on run lines to pick up isel options in llc commands and allow generating check lines of isel final output other than assembly. If llc command line contains -debug-only=isel, update_llc_test_checks.py will try to scrub isel output, otherwise, the script will fall back on default behaviour, which is try to scrub assembly output instead. The motivation of this change is to allow usage of update_llc_test_checks.py to autogenerate checks of instruction selection results. In this way, we can detect errors at an earlier stage before the compilation goes all the way to assembly. It is an example of having some transparency for the stages between IR and assembly. These generated tests are almost like "unit tests" of isel stage. This patch only implements the initial change to differentiate isel output from assembly output for Lanai. Other targets will not be supported for isel check generation at the moment. Although adding support for it will only require implementing the function regex and scrubber for corresponding targets. The Lanai implementation was chosen mainly for the simplicity of demonstrating the difference between isel checks and asm checks. This patch also do not include the implementation of function prefix, which is required for the generated isel checks to pass. I will put up a follow up revision for the function prefix change to complete isel support. Reviewed By: Flakebi Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D119368
