[x86] use zero-extending load of a byte outside of loops too (2nd try)

The first attempt missed changing test files for tools
(update_llc_test_checks.py).

Original commit message:

This implements the main suggested change from issue #56498.
Using the shorter (non-extending) instruction with only
-Oz ("minsize") rather than -Os ("optsize") is left as a
possible follow-up.

As noted in the bug report, the zero-extending load may have
shorter latency/better throughput across a wide range of x86
micro-arches, and it avoids a potential false dependency.
The cost is an extra instruction byte.

This could cause perf ups and downs from secondary effects,
but I don't think it is possible to account for those in
advance, and that will likely also depend on exact micro-arch.
This does bring LLVM x86 codegen more in line with existing
gcc codegen, so if problems are exposed they are more likely
to occur for both compilers.

[UpdateTestChecks] Use a counter for unpredictable FileCheck variables

Variable captures such as `<MCInst #` can change based on unrelated changes
to the LLVM backends, to avoid the generated test cases being different
use an incrementing counter for variable names instead of using the
actual value from the output file.
This change may also be beneficial for some nameless IR variables
(especially when combined with filtering of output), but for now I've
restricted this change to the obvious candidates (--asm-show-inst output).

[update_llc_test_checks] Use FileCheck captures for MCInst/MCReg output

To avoid test churn when backends add/rename new instructions/registers,
it makes sense to use FileCheck captures for the exact MCInst/Reg number.
This is motivated by D125307, where I use --asm-show-inst to differentiate
the output for multiple instructions with the same mnemonic.

This does not quite fix the churn issue yet: While files with the generated
checks will be immune to the numbers changing, the update script test
still suffers from this problem since the number is encoded in the
FileCheck variable name. I plan to address this in a follow-up patch.
