Also avoid locals evicting locals just because they want a cheaper register.
Problem: MI Sched knows exactly how many registers we have and assumes
they can be colored. In cases where we have large blocks, usually from
unrolled loops, greedy coloring fails. This is a source of
"regressions" from the MI Scheduler on x86. I noticed this issue on
x86 where we have long chains of two-address defs in the same live
range. It's easy to see this in matrix multiplication benchmarks like
IRSmk and even the unit test misched-matmul.ll.
A fundamental difference between the LLVM register allocator and
conventional graph coloring is that in our model a live range can't
discover its neighbors, it can only verify its neighbors. That's why
we initially went for greedy coloring and added eviction to deal with
the hard cases. However, for singly defined and two-address live
ranges, we can optimally color without visiting neighbors simply by
processing the live ranges in instruction order.
Other beneficial side effects:
It is much easier to understand and debug regalloc for large blocks
when the live ranges are allocated in order. Yes, global allocation is
still very confusing, but it's nice to be able to comprehend what
happened locally.
Heuristics could be added to bias register assignment based on
instruction locality (think late register pairing, banks...).
Intuituvely this will make some test cases that are on the threshold
of register pressure more stable.

floating point equality comparisons into integer ones with -ffast-math. The
issue is the optimization causes +0.0 != -0.0.
Now the optimization is only done when one side is known to be 0.0. The other
side's sign bit is masked off for the comparison.

If the basic block containing the BCCi64 (or BCCZi64) instruction ends with
an unconditional branch, that branch needs to be deleted before appending
the expansion of the BCCi64 to the end of the block.

-enable-no-nans-fp-math and -enable-no-infs-fp-math. All of the current codegen fp math optimizations only care whether the fp arithmetics arguments and results can never be NaN.

1. The arguments are f32.
2. The arguments are loads and they have no uses other than the comparison.
3. The comparison code is EQ or NE.
e.g.
vldr.32 s0, [r1]
vldr.32 s1, [r0]
vcmpe.f32 s1, s0
vmrs apsr_nzcv, fpscr
beq LBB0_2
=>
ldr r1, [r1]
ldr r0, [r0]
cmp r0, r1
beq LBB0_2
More complicated cases will be implemented in subsequent patches.
