This patch adds a -time-regions option to tablegen that can enable timers
(currently only one) that assess the performance of tablegen itself. This
can be useful for identifying scaling problems with tablegen backends.
This particular timer has allowed me to ignore time that is not attributed
the GISel combiner pass. It's useful by itself but it is particularly
useful in combination with https://reviews.llvm.org/D52954 which causes
this period of time to be annotated within Xcode Instruments which in turn
allows profile samples and recorded allocations attributed to reading
instructions to be filtered out.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

The TableGenBackend base class doesn't do much, and will be removed
completely soon.
