Rename the DEBUG_TYPE to match the names of corresponding passes where
it makes sense. Also establish the pattern of simply referencing
DEBUG_TYPE instead of repeating the passname where possible.

Specifically avoid implicit conversions from/to integral types to
avoid potential errors when changing the underlying type. For example,
a typical initialization of a "full" mask was "LaneMask = ~0u", which
would result in a value of 0x00000000FFFFFFFF if the type was extended
to uint64_t.

tracksSubRegLiveness only depends on the Subtarget and a cl::opt, there
is not need to change it or save/parse it in a .mir file.
Make the field const and move the initialization LiveIntervalAnalysis to the
MachineRegisterInfo constructor. Also cleanup some code and fix some
instances which better use MachineRegisterInfo::subRegLivenessEnabled() instead
of TargetSubtargetInfo::enableSubRegLiveness().

In case of COPY-like instruction we may be able to deduce that a certain
input is unused, based on the used lanes of the register defined by the
instruction.
This even works accross otherwise incompatible copies (no need to have
compatible lanemasks, completely unused operands are still completely
unused). It even makes sense to redo the analysis in this case since we
gained information for a case we previously stopped at because of the
incompatible masks.

The DetectDeadLanes pass performs a dataflow analysis of used/defined
subregister lanes across COPY instructions and instructions that will
get lowered to copies. It detects dead definitions and uses reading
undefined values which are obscured by COPY and subregister usage.
These dead definitions cause trouble in the register coalescer which
cannot deal with definitions suddenly becoming dead after coalescing
COPY instructions.
For now the pass only adds dead and undef flags to machine operands. It
should be possible to extend it in the future to remove the dead
instructions and redo the analysis for the affected virtual
registers.
