[TableGen][DecoderEmitter] Resolve a FIXME in emitDecoder (#154649)
As the FIXME says, we might generate the wrong code to decode an
instruction if it had an operand with no encoding bits. An example is
M68k's `MOV16ds` that is defined as follows:
```
dag OutOperandList = (outs MxDRD16:$dst);
dag InOperandList = (ins SRC:$src);
list<Register> Uses = [SR];
string AsmString = "move.w\t$src, $dst"
dag Inst = (descend { 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1 },
(descend { 0, 0, 0 }, (operand "$dst", 3)));
```
The `$src` operand is not encoded, but what we see in the decoder is:
```C++
tmp = fieldFromInstruction(insn, 0, 3);
if (!Check(S, DecodeDR16RegisterClass(MI, tmp, Address, Decoder)))
{ return MCDisassembler::Fail; }
if (!Check(S, DecodeSRCRegisterClass(MI, insn, Address, Decoder)))
{ return MCDisassembler::Fail; }
return S;
```
This calls DecodeSRCRegisterClass passing it `insn` instead of the value
of a field that doesn't exist. DecodeSRCRegisterClass has an
unconditional llvm_unreachable inside it.
New decoder looks like:
```C++
tmp = fieldFromInstruction(insn, 0, 3);
if (!Check(S, DecodeDR16RegisterClass(MI, tmp, Address, Decoder)))
{ return MCDisassembler::Fail; }
return S;
```
We're still not disassembling this instruction right, but at least we no
longer have to provide a weird operand decoder method that accepts
instruction bits instead of operand bits.

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
