Support predicate registers (clobber-only) in Hexagon inline assembly

The result of the Hexagon instructions such as comparison, store conditional, etc. is stored in predicate registers (`p[0-3]`), but currently there is no way to mark it as clobbered in `asm!`.

This is also needed for `clobber_abi` (although implementing `clobber_abi` will require the addition of support for [several more register classes](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/llvmorg-19.1.0/llvm/lib/Target/Hexagon/HexagonRegisterInfo.cpp#L71-L90). see also https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/93335#issuecomment-2395210055).

The codegen crate contains the code to convert from MIR into LLVM IR, and then from LLVM IR into machine code. In general it contains code that runs towards the end of the compilation process.

For more information about how codegen works, see the rustc dev guide.
