[Hexagon] Handle instruction latency for 0 or 2 cycles

The Hexagon schedulers need to handle instructions with a latency
of 0 or 2 more accurately. The problem, in v60, is that a dependence
between two instructions with a 2 cycle latency can use a .cur version
of the source to achieve a 0 cycle latency when the use is in the
same packet. Any othe use, must be at least 2 packets later, or a
stall occurs. In other words, the compiler does not want to schedule
the dependent instructions 1 cycle later.

To achieve this, the latency adjustment code allows only a single
dependence to have a zero latency. All other instructions have the
other value, which is typically 2 cycles. We use a heuristic to
determine which instruction gets the 0 latency.

The Hexagon machine scheduler was also changed to increase the cost
associated with 0 latency dependences than can be scheduled in the
same packet.
