LOG: [RISCV] Don't call setHasMultipleConditionRegisters(), so icmp is sunk

On RISC-V, icmp is not sunk (as the following snippet shows) which
generates the following suboptimal branch pattern:
```
  core_list_find:
	lh	a2, 2(a1)
	seqz	a3, a0         <<
	bltz	a2, .LBB0_5
	bnez	a3, .LBB0_9    << should sink the seqz
        [...]
	j	.LBB0_9
  .LBB0_5:
	bnez	a3, .LBB0_9    << should sink the seqz
	lh	a1, 0(a1)
        [...]
```
due to an icmp not being sunk.

The blocks after `codegenprepare` look as follows:
```
  define dso_local %struct.list_head_s* @core_list_find(%struct.list_head_s* readonly %list, %struct.list_data_s* nocapture readonly %info) local_unnamed_addr #0 {
  entry:
    %idx = getelementptr inbounds %struct.list_data_s, %struct.list_data_s* %info, i64 0, i32 1
    %0 = load i16, i16* %idx, align 2, !tbaa !4
    %cmp = icmp sgt i16 %0, -1
    %tobool.not37 = icmp eq %struct.list_head_s* %list, null
    br i1 %cmp, label %while.cond.preheader, label %while.cond9.preheader

  while.cond9.preheader:                            ; preds = %entry
    br i1 %tobool.not37, label %return, label %land.rhs11.lr.ph
```
where the `%tobool.not37` is the result of the icmp that is not sunk.
Note that it is computed in the basic-block up until what becomes the
`bltz` instruction and the `bnez` is a basic-block of its own.

Compare this to what happens on AArch64 (where the icmp is correctly sunk):
```
  define dso_local %struct.list_head_s* @core_list_find(%struct.list_head_s* readonly %list, %struct.list_data_s* nocapture readonly %info) local_unnamed_addr #0 {
  entry:
    %idx = getelementptr inbounds %struct.list_data_s, %struct.list_data_s* %info, i64 0, i32 1
    %0 = load i16, i16* %idx, align 2, !tbaa !6
    %cmp = icmp sgt i16 %0, -1
    br i1 %cmp, label %while.cond.preheader, label %while.cond9.preheader

  while.cond9.preheader:                            ; preds = %entry
    %1 = icmp eq %struct.list_head_s* %list, null
    br i1 %1, label %return, label %land.rhs11.lr.ph
```

This is caused by sinkCmpExpression() being skipped, if multiple
condition registers are supported.

Given that the check for multiple condition registers affect only
sinkCmpExpression() and shouldNormalizeToSelectSequence(), this change
adjusts the RISC-V target as follows:
 * we no longer signal multiple condition registers (thus changing
   the behaviour of sinkCmpExpression() back to sinking the icmp)
 * we override shouldNormalizeToSelectSequence() to let always select
   the preferred normalisation strategy for our backend

With both changes, the test results remain unchanged.  Note that without
the target-specific override to shouldNormalizeToSelectSequence(), there
is worse code (more branches) generated for select-and.ll and select-or.ll.

The original test case changes as expected:
```
  core_list_find:
	lh	a2, 2(a1)
	bltz	a2, .LBB0_5
	beqz	a0, .LBB0_9    <<
        [...]
	j	.LBB0_9
.LBB0_5:
	beqz	a0, .LBB0_9    <<
	lh	a1, 0(a1)
        [...]
```
