AArch64: Add SVE constraints verifier.
This patch adds the verification rules for move prefix constraints. The Arm SVE instruction MOVPRFX introduces[1] constraints on the instruction at PC+4. Particularly the following constraints are handled by this patch * MOVPRFX must be followed by an instruction. * MOVPRFX can only be followed by non-layout altering directives. * MOVPRFX destination register MUST be used as the destination register in the instruction at PC+4, and is not allowed to be used in any other position other than destructive input. This includes registers that architecturally overlap. e.g. x1 should be treated as z1. * MOVPRFX must be followed by a restricted set of SVE instructions. * The size of the destination register of MOVPRFX must be equal to that of the operation at PC+4. * The predicate register and operation of MOVPRFX must match that of the instruction at PC+4 * The predicated instruction at PC+4 must use the merging predicate. * Architectural aliases and pseudo-instructions need to be supported as well. * MOVPRFX cannot be the last instruction in a sequence Any failure to adhere to any of these constrains will emit an assembly warning and a disassembly note.
