[mips][fp64] Add an implicit def to MTHC1 claiming that it reads the lower 32-bits of 64-bit FPR

Summary:
This is a white lie to workaround a widespread bug in the -mfp64
implementation.

The problem is that none of the 32-bit fpu ops mention the fact that they
clobber the upper 32-bits of the 64-bit FPR. This allows MTHC1 to be
scheduled on the wrong side of most 32-bit FPU ops, particularly MTC1.
Fixing that requires a major overhaul of the FPU implementation which can't
be done right now due to time constraints.

The testcase is SingleSource/Benchmarks/Misc/oourafft.c when given
TARGET_CFLAGS='-mips32r2 mfp64 -mmsa'.

Also correct the comment added in r203464 to indicate that two
instructions were affected.
