[Hexagon][llvm-objdump] Improve disassembly of Hexagon bundles (#145807) Hexagon instructions are VLIW "bundles" of up to four instruction words encoded as a single MCInst with operands for each sub-instruction. Previously, the disassembler's getInstruction() returned the full bundle, which made it difficult to work with llvm-objdump. For example, since all instructions are bundles, and bundles do not branch, branch targets could not be printed. This patch modifies the Hexagon disassembler to return individual sub-instructions instead of entire bundles, enabling correct printing of branch targets and relocations. It also introduces `MCDisassembler::getInstructionBundle` for cases where the full bundle is still needed. By default, llvm-objdump separates instructions with newlines. However, this does not work well for Hexagon syntax: { inst1 inst2 inst3 inst4 <branch> } :endloop0 Instructions may be followed by a closing brace, a closing brace with `:endloop`, or a newline. Branches must appear within the braces. To address this, `PrettyPrinter::getInstructionSeparator()` is added and overridden for Hexagon.
