aco/gfx10: Mitigate VcmpxExecWARHazard.

There is a hazard when a non-VALU instruction reads the EXEC mask
and then a VALU instruction writes the EXEC mask.
This commit adds a workaround that avoids the problem.

Confirmed by AMD devs that despite the name, this doesn't only affect v_cmpx.
Mitigated by: any VALU instruction except `v_nop`.
### VcmpxExecWARHazard
Triggered by:
Any non-VALU instruction reads the EXEC mask. Then, any VALU instruction writes the EXEC mask.
Mitigated by:
A VALU instruction that writes an SGPR (or has a valid SDST operand), or `s_waitcnt_depctr 0xfffe`.
Note: `s_waitcnt_depctr` is an internal instruction, so there is no further information
about what it does or what its operand means.
