MI-Sched: Model "reserved" processor resources.

This allows a target to use MI-Sched as an in-order scheduler that
will model strict resource conflicts without defining a processor
itinerary. Instead, the target can now use the new per-operand machine
model and define in-order resources with BufferSize=0. For example,
this would allow restricting the type of operations that can be formed
into a dispatch group. (Normally NumMicroOps is sufficient to enforce
dispatch groups).

If the intent is to model latency in in-order pipeline, as opposed to
resource conflicts, then a resource with BufferSize=1 should be
defined instead.

This feature is only casually tested as there are no in-tree targets
using it yet. However, Hal will be experimenting with POWER7.
