Not clearing was causing non-deterministic compiles for large files. Addresses
for MachineBasicBlocks would end up colliding and we would lay out a block that

For chains of triangles with small join blocks that can be tail duplicated, a
simple calculation of probabilities is insufficient. Tail duplication
can be profitable in 3 different ways for these cases:
1) The post-dominators marked 50% are actually taken 56% (This shrinks with
longer chains)
2) The chains are statically correlated. Branch probabilities have a very
U-shaped distribution.
[http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:24015805]
If the branches in a chain are likely to be from the same side of the
distribution as their predecessor, but are independent at runtime, this
transformation is profitable. (Because the cost of being wrong is a small
fixed cost, unlike the standard triangle layout where the cost of being
wrong scales with the # of triangles.)
3) The chains are dynamically correlated. If the probability that a previous
branch was taken positively influences whether the next branch will be
taken
We believe that 2 and 3 are common enough to justify the small margin in 1.
The code pre-scans a function's CFG to identify this pattern and marks the edges
so that the standard layout algorithm can use the computed results.

Lay out trellis-shaped CFGs optimally.
A trellis of the shape below:
A B
|\ /|
| \ / |
| X |
| / \ |
|/ \|
C D
would be laid out A; B->C ; D by the current layout algorithm. Now we identify
trellises and lay them out either A->C; B->D or A->D; B->C. This scales with an
increasing number of predecessors. A trellis is a a group of 2 or more
predecessor blocks that all have the same successors.
because of this we can tail duplicate to extend existing trellises.
As an example consider the following CFG:
B D F H
/ \ / \ / \ / \
A---C---E---G---Ret
Where A,C,E,G are all small (Currently 2 instructions).
The CFG preserving layout is then A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,Ret.
The current code will copy C into B, E into D and G into F and yield the layout
A,C,B(C),E,D(E),F(G),G,H,ret
define void @straight_test(i32 %tag) {

The tail-duplication has produced some benefit, but it has also produced a
trellis which is not laid out optimally. With this patch, we improve the layouts
of such trellises, and decrease the cost calculation for tail-duplication
accordingly.
This patch produces the layout A,C,E,G,B,D,F,H,Ret. This layout does have
back edges, which is a negative, but it has a bigger compensating
positive, which is that it handles the case where there are long strings
of skipped blocks much better than the original layout. Both layouts
handle runs of executed blocks equally well. Branch prediction also
improves if there is any correlation between subsequent optional blocks.
Here is the resulting concrete layout:
straight_test: # @straight_test
; BB#0: # %entry ; A (merged with test1)
mr 30, 3
andi. 3, 30, 1

direction. For small blocks that can be duplicated we now skip that requirement

Summary:
This fixes an issue with MachineBlockPlacement due to a badly timed call
to `analyzeBranch` with `AllowModify` set to true. The timeline is as
follows:
1. `MachineBlockPlacement::maybeTailDuplicateBlock` calls
`TailDup.shouldTailDuplicate` on its argument, which in turn calls
`analyzeBranch` with `AllowModify` set to true.
2. This `analyzeBranch` call edits the terminator sequence of the block
based on the physical layout of the machine function, turning an
unanalyzable non-fallthrough block to a unanalyzable fallthrough
block. Normally MBP bails out of rearranging such blocks, but this
block was unanalyzable non-fallthrough (and thus rearrangeable) the
first time MBP looked at it, and so it goes ahead and decides where
it should be placed in the function.
3. When placing this block MBP fails to analyze and thus update the
block in keeping with the new physical layout.
Concretely, before (1) we have something like:
```
LBL0:
< unknown terminator op that may branch to LBL1 >
jmp LBL1
LBL1:
... A
LBL2:
... B
```
In (2), analyze branch simplifies this to
```
LBL0:
< unknown terminator op that may branch to LBL2 >
;; jmp LBL1 <- redundant jump removed
LBL1:
... A
LBL2:
... B
```
In (3), MachineBlockPlacement goes ahead with its plan of putting LBL2
after the first block since that is profitable.
```
LBL0:
< unknown terminator op that may branch to LBL2 >
;; jmp LBL1 <- redundant jump
LBL2:
... B
LBL1:
... A
```
and the program now has incorrect behavior (we no longer fall-through
from `LBL0` to `LBL1`) because MBP can no longer edit LBL0.
There are several possible solutions, but I went with removing the teeth
off of the `analyzeBranch` calls in TailDuplicator. That makes thinking
about the result of these calls easier, and breaks nothing in the lit
test suite.
I've also added some bookkeeping to the MachineBlockPlacement pass and
used that to write an assert that would have caught this.

The tail duplication pass uses an assumed layout when making duplication
decisions. This is fine, but passes up duplication opportunities that
may arise when blocks are outlined. Because we want the updated CFG to
affect subsequent placement decisions, this change must occur during
placement.
In order to achieve this goal, TailDuplicationPass is split into a
utility class, TailDuplicator, and the pass itself. The pass delegates
nearly everything to the TailDuplicator object, except for looping over
the blocks in a function. This allows the same code to be used for tail
duplication in both places.
This change, in concert with outlining optional branches, allows
triangle shaped code to perform much better, esepecially when the
taken/untaken branches are correlated, as it creates a second spine when
the tests are small enough.
Issue from previous rollback fixed, and a new test was added for that

The following pattern was being layed out poorly:
A
/ \
B C

D E ? (Doesn't matter)
Where A->B is far more likely than A->C, and prob(B->D) = prob(B->E)
The current algorithm gives:
A,B,C,E (D goes on worklist)
It does this even if C has a frequency count of 0. This patch
adjusts the layout calculation so that if freq(B->E) >> freq(C->E)
then we go ahead and layout E rather than C. Fallthrough half the time
is better than fallthrough never, or fallthrough very rarely. The
resulting layout is:
A,B,E, (C and D are in a worklist)
