This rewrites big parts of the fast register allocator. The basic
strategy of doing block-local allocation hasn't changed but I tweaked
several details:
Track register state on register units instead of physical
registers. This simplifies and speeds up handling of register aliases.
Process basic blocks in reverse order: Definitions are known to end
register livetimes when walking backwards (contrary when walking
forward then uses may or may not be a kill so we need heuristics).
Check register mask operands (calls) instead of conservatively
assuming everything is clobbered. Enhance heuristics to detect
killing uses: In case of a small number of defs/uses check if they are
all in the same basic block and if so the last one is a killing use.
Enhance heuristic for copy-coalescing through hinting: We check the
first k defs of a register for COPYs rather than relying on there just
being a single definition. When testing this on the full llvm
test-suite including SPEC externals I measured:
average 5.1% reduction in code size for X86, 4.9% reduction in code on
aarch64. (ranging between 0% and 20% depending on the test) 0.5%
faster compiletime (some analysis suggests the pass is slightly slower
than before, but we more than make up for it because later passes are
faster with the reduced instruction count)
Also adds a few testcases that were broken without this patch, in
particular bug 47278.

Initial support for dwarf fission sections (-gsplit-dwarf) on wasm.
The most interesting change is support for writing 2 files (.o and .dwo) in the
wasm object writer. My approach moves object-writing logic into its own function
and calls it twice, swapping out the endian::Writer (W) in between calls.
It also splits the import-preparation step into its own function (and skips it when writing a dwo).

This is needed to support assumed size array of fortran which can have missing upperBound/count
, contrary to current DISubrange support.
Example:
subroutine sub (array1, array2)
integer :: array1 (*)
integer :: array2 (4:9, 10:*)
array1(7:8) = 9
array2(5, 10) = 10
end subroutine
Now the validation check is relaxed for fortran.

This was landed but reverted in 5b9c2b1bea7 due to asan picking up a memory
leak. This is fixed in the change to InstrRefBasedImpl.cpp. Original
commit message follows:
[LiveDebugValues][NFC] Add instr-ref tests, adapt old tests
This patch adds a few tests in DebugInfo/MIR/InstrRef/ of interesting
behaviour that the instruction referencing implementation of
LiveDebugValues has. Mostly, these tests exist to ensure that if you
give the "-experimental-debug-variable-locations" command line switch,
the right implementation runs; and to ensure it behaves the same way as
the VarLoc LiveDebugValues implementation.
I've also touched roughly 30 other tests, purely to make the tests less
rigid about what output to accept. DBG_VALUE instructions are usually
printed with a trailing !debug-location indicating its scope:
!debug-location !1234
However InstrRefBasedLDV produces new DebugLoc instances on the fly,
meaning there sometimes isn't a numbered node when they're printed,
making the output:
!debug-location !DILocation(line: 0, blah blah)
Which causes a ton of these tests to fail. This patch removes checks for
that final part of each DBG_VALUE instruction. None of them appear to
be actually checking the scope is correct, just that it's present, so
I don't believe there's any loss in coverage here.

As stated in section 6.1.1.2, DWARFv5, p. 142,
| The last entry for each name is followed by a zero byte that

The patch changes emitting a 4-byte zero value to a 1-byte one, which
effectively removes the gap between entry lists, and thus saves
approximately 3 bytes per name; the calculation is not exact because
the total size of the table is aligned to 4.

Almost NFC (see end).
The backwards scan in validThroughout significantly contributed to compile time
for a pathological case, causing the 'X86 Assembly Printer' pass to account for
roughly 70% of the run time. This patch guards the loop against running
unnecessarily, bringing the pass contribution down to 4%.
Almost NFC: There is a hack in validThroughout which promotes single constant
value DBG_VALUEs in the prologue to be live throughout the function. We're more
likely to hit this code path with this patch applied. Similarly to the parent
patches there is a small coverage change reported in the order of 10s of bytes.

blocks was add there, and this patch just removes the exit checks that were
previously (but no longer) required.
CTMark shows a geomean binary size reduction of 2.2% for RelWithDebInfo builds.

With this patch we're now accounting for two more cases which should be
considered 'valid throughout': First, where RangeEnd is ScopeEnd. Second, where
RangeEnd comes before ScopeEnd when including meta instructions, but are both
preceded by the same non-meta instruction.
CTMark shows a geomean binary size reduction of 1.5% for RelWithDebInfo builds.
`llvm-locstats` (using D85636) shows a very small variable location coverage
change in 2 of 10 binaries, but it is in the order of 10s of bytes which lines
up with my expectations.
I've added a test which checks both of these new cases. The first check in the
test isn't strictly necessary for this patch. But I'm not sure that it is
explicitly tested anywhere else, and is useful for the final patch in the

llvm is missing support for DW_OP_implicit_value operation.
DW_OP_implicit_value op is indispensable for cases such as
optimized out long double variables.
For intro refer: DWARFv5 Spec Pg: 40 2.6.1.1.4 Implicit Location Descriptions
Consider the following example:
```
int main() {
long double ld = 3.14;
printf("dummy\n");
ld *= ld;
return 0;
}
```
when compiled with tunk `clang` as
`clang test.c -g -O1` produces following location description
of variable `ld`:
```
DW_AT_location (0x00000000:
[0x0000000000201691, 0x000000000020169b): DW_OP_constu 0xc8f5c28f5c28f800, DW_OP_stack_value, DW_OP_piece 0x8, DW_OP_constu 0x4000, DW_OP_stack_value, DW_OP_bit_piece 0x10 0x40, DW_OP_stack_value)
DW_AT_name ("ld")
```
Here one may notice that this representation is incorrect(DWARF4
stack could only hold integers(and only up to the size of address)).
Here the variable size itself is `128` bit.
GDB and LLDB confirms this:
```
(gdb) p ld
$1 = <invalid float value>
(lldb) frame variable ld
(long double) ld = <extracting data from value failed>
```
GCC represents/uses DW_OP_implicit_value in these sort of situations.
Based on the discussion with Jakub Jelinek regarding GCC's motivation
for using this, I concluded that DW_OP_implicit_value is most appropriate
in this case.

GDB seems happy after this patch:(LLDB doesn't have support

Theory was that we should never reach a non-type unit (eg: type in an
anonymous namespace) when we're already in the invalid "encountered an
address-use, so stop emitting types for now, until we throw out the
whole type tree to restart emitting in non-type unit" state. But that's
not the case (prior commit cleaned up one reason this wasn't exposed
sooner - but also makes it easier to test/demonstrate this issue)
This reads more like what you'd expect the DWARF to look like (from the
lexical order of C++ - template parameters come before members, etc),
and also happens to make it easier to tickle (& thus test) a bug related
to type units and Split DWARF I'm about to fix.
dumpStringOffsetsSection() expects the size of a contribution to be
correctly aligned. The patch adds the corresponding verifications for
pre-v5 cases.
