For profile staleness report, before it only counts for the top-level function samples in the nested profile, the samples in the inlinees are ignored. This could affect the quality of the metrics when there are heavily inlined functions. This change adds a feature to flatten the nested profile and we're changing to use flatten profile as the input for stale profile detection and matching.
Example for profile flattening:
```
Original profile:
_Z3bazi:20301:1000
1: 1000
3: 2000
5: inline1:1600
1: 600
3: inline2:500
1: 500
Flattened profile:
_Z3bazi:18701:1000
1: 1000
3: 2000
5: 600 inline1:600
inline1:1100:600
1: 600
3: 500 inline2: 500
inline2:500:500
1: 500
```
This feature could be useful for offline analysis, like understanding the hotness of each individual function. So I'm adding the support to `llvm-profdata merge` under `--gen-flattened-profile`.

Currently, the llvm-exegesis documentation page has all
snippet annotation information under an example. This patch refactors
the annotation documentation to a separate section to make things more
clear and to make adding future annotations easier. This patch also
significantly expands the documentation on the memory scratch space to
which a pointer can be passed through a register as the documentation on
this was quite sparse previously.

Since binary ID lookup makes CLI object arguments optional, it should be
possible to pass a list of source files without a binary. Unfortunately,
the current syntax will always interpret the first source file as a
binary. This change adds a `-sources` option to cause all later
positional arguments to be considered sources.

While "skip measurements mode" is super useful for test coverage,
i've come to discover it's trade-offs. It still calls back-end
to actually codegen the target assembly, and that is what is taking
80%+ of the time regardless of whether or not we skip the measurements.
On the other hand, just being able to see that exegesis can come up
with a snippet to measure something, is already very useful,
and takes maybe a second for a all-opcode sweep.

By default, all benchmark results are analysed, but sometimes it may be useful
to only look at those that to not involve memory, or vice versa. This option
allows to either keep all benchmarks, or filter out (ignore) either all the
ones that do involve memory (involve instructions that may read or write to
memory), or the opposite, to only keep such benchmarks.
Personally, so far i have found the benchmarks that do involve memory
to have dubious results. But the ones that do not involve memory,
are generally actionable. So i would like to have a toggle to declutter results.

Noticed while trying to use llvm-exegesis to get some accurate capture numbers on some old Atom/Silverment hardware as part of the work with D103695.
These targets' frontends are particularly poor and the use of the xmm8-xmm15 SSE registers results in longer instruction encodings which were affecting the latency/throughput estimates.

On x86 and AArch, SIMD instructions encode all of the scheduling information in the instruction
itself. For example, VADD.I16 q0, q1, q2 is a neon instruction that operates on 16-bit integer
elements stored in 128-bit Q registers, which leads to eight 16-bit lanes in parallel. This kind
of information impacts how the instruction takes to execute and what dependencies this may cause.
On RISCV however, the data that impacts scheduling is encoded in CSR registers such as vtype or
vl, in addition with the instruction itself. But MCA does not track or use the data in these
registers. This patch fixes this problem by introducing Instruments into MCA.

Remove the `--src-root` option from the deprecated llvm-config tool.
None of the llvm-project projects use this option anymore. The value
was only meaningful for in-tree use and usually became no longer correct
once LLVM was installed -- either because it was built in a temporary
directory, or installed from a binary package and built on a different
system entirely. Therefore, third-party tools could not have been
relying on it anyway.
The LLVM_SRC_ROOT #define is left intact, as it is used to compute
includedir when llvm-config is used in-source.

These directives define per-test lit substitutions. The concept was
discussed at
<https://discourse.llvm.org/t/iterating-lit-run-lines/62596/10>.
For example, the following directives can be inserted into a test file
to define `%{cflags}` and `%{fcflags}` substitutions with empty
initial values, which serve as the parameters of another newly defined
`%{check}` substitution:
```
// DEFINE: %{cflags} =
// DEFINE: %{fcflags} =
// DEFINE: %{check} = %clang_cc1 %{cflags} -emit-llvm -o - %s | \
// DEFINE: FileCheck %{fcflags} %s
```
The following directives then redefine the parameters before each use
of `%{check}`:
```
// REDEFINE: %{cflags} = -foo
// REDEFINE: %{fcflags} = -check-prefix=FOO
// RUN: %{check}
// REDEFINE: %{cflags} = -bar
// REDEFINE: %{fcflags} = -check-prefix=BAR
// RUN: %{check}
```
Of course, `%{check}` would typically be more elaborate, increasing
the benefit of the reuse.
One issue is that the strings `DEFINE:` and `REDEFINE:` already appear
in 5 tests. This patch adjusts those tests not to use those strings.
Our prediction is that, in the vast majority of cases, if a test
author mistakenly uses one of those strings for another purpose, the
text appearing after the string will not happen to have the syntax
required for these directives. Thus, the test author will discover
the mistake immediately when lit reports the syntax error.
This patch also expands the documentation on existing lit substitution
behavior.
