[gicombiner] Add the MatchDag structure and parse instruction DAG's from the input

Summary:
The MatchDag structure is a representation of the checks that need to be
performed and the dependencies that limit when they can happen.

There are two kinds of node in the MatchDag:
* Instrs - Represent a MachineInstr
* Predicates - Represent a check that needs to be performed (i.e. opcode, is register, same machine operand, etc.)
and two kinds of edges:
* (Traversal) Edges - Represent a register that can be traversed to find one instr from another
* Predicate Dependency Edges - Indicate that a predicate requires a piece of information to be tested.

For example, the matcher:
 (match (MOV $t, $s),
        (MOV $d, $t))
with MOV declared as an instruction of the form:
  %dst = MOV %src1
becomes the following MatchDag with the following instruction nodes:
  __anon0_0 // $t=getOperand(0), $s=getOperand(1)
  __anon0_1 // $d=getOperand(0), $t=getOperand(1)
traversal edges:
  __anon0_1[src1] --[t]--> __anon0_0[dst]
predicate nodes:
  <<$mi.getOpcode() == MOV>>:$__anonpred0_2
  <<$mi.getOpcode() == MOV>>:$__anonpred0_3
and predicate dependencies:
  __anon0_0 ==> __anonpred0_2[mi]
  __anon0_0 ==> __anonpred0_3[mi]

The result of this parse is currently unused but can be tested
using -gicombiner-stop-after-parse as done in parse-match-pattern.td. The
dump for testing includes a graphviz format dump to allow the rule to be
viewed visually.

Later on, these MatchDag's will be used to generate code and to build an
efficient decision tree.
