[test] Change llc -march= to -mtriple=

The issue is uncovered by #47698: for IR files without a target triple,
-mtriple= specifies the full target triple while -march= merely sets the
architecture part of the default target triple, leaving a target triple which
may not make sense, e.g. riscv64-apple-darwin.

Therefore, -march= is error-prone and not recommended for tests without a target
triple. The issue has been benign as we recognize $unknown-apple-darwin as ELF instead
of rejecting it outrightly.

[AMDGPU] Use resource base for buffer instruction MachineMemOperands

1. Remove the existing code that would encode the constant offsets (if
there were any) on buffer intrinsic operations onto their
`MachineMemOperand`s. As far as I can tell, this use of `offset` has
no substantial impact on the generated code, especially since the same
reasoning is performed by areMemAccessesTriviallyDisjoint().

2. When a buffer resource intrinsic takes a pointer argument as the
base resource/descriptor, place that memory argument in the value
field of the MachineMemOperand attached to that intrinsic.

This is more conservative than what would be produced by more typical
LLVM code using GEP, as the Value (for alias analysis purposes)
corresponding to accessing buffer[0] and buffer[1] is the same.
However, the target-specific analysis of disjoint offsets covers a lot
of the simple usecases.

Despite this limitation, the new buffer intrinsics, combined with
LLVM's existing pointer annotations, allow for non-trivial
optimizations, as seen in the new tests, where marking two buffer
descriptors "noalias" allows merging together loads and stores in a
"load from A, modify loaded value, store to B" sequence, which would
not be possible previously.

[AMDGPU] Add buffer intrinsics that take resources as pointers

In order to enable the LLVM frontend to better analyze buffer
operations (and to potentially enable more precise analyses on the
backend), define versions of the raw and structured buffer intrinsics
that use `ptr addrspace(8)` instead of `<4 x i32>` to represent their
rsrc arguments.

The new intrinsics are named by replacing `buffer.` with `buffer.ptr`.

One advantage to these intrinsic definitions is that, instead of
specifying that a buffer load/store will read/write some memory, we
can indicate that the memory read or written will be based on the
pointer argument. This means that, for example, a read from a
`noalias` buffer can be pulled out of a loop that is modifying a
distinct buffer.

In the future, we will define custom PseudoSourceValues that will
allow us to package up the (buffer, index, offset) triples that buffer
intrinsics contain and allow for more precise backend analysis.

This work also enables creating address space 7, which represents
manipulation of raw buffers using native LLVM load and store
instructions.

Where tests simply used a buffer intrinsic while testing some other
code path (such as the tests for VGPR spills), they have been updated
to use the new intrinsic form. Tests that are "about" buffer
intrinsics (for instance, those that ensure that they codegen as
expected) have been duplicated, either within existing files or into
new ones.
