register at a time. This turns out to be slightly faster than iterating over
instructions, but more importantly, it allows us to compute spill weights for
new registers created after the spill weight pass has run.
Also compute the allocation hint at the same time as the spill weight. This
allows us to use the spill weight as a cost metric for copies, and choose the
most profitable hint if there is more than one possibility.
The new hints provide a very small (< 0.1%) but universal code size improvement.

After heavy editing of a live interval, it is much easier to simply renumber the
live values instead of trying to keep track of the unused ones.

This allows us to recognize the common case where all uses could be
rematerialized, and no stack slot allocation is necessary.
If some values could be fully rematerialized, remove them from the live range
before allocating a stack slot for the rest.

The VNInfo.kills vector was almost unused except for all the code keeping it
updated. The few places using it were easily rewritten to check for interval
ends instead.
The two new methods LiveInterval::killedAt and killedInRange are replacements.
This brings us down to 3 independent data structures tracking kills.

This introduces a new pass, SlotIndexes, which is responsible for numbering
instructions for register allocation (and other clients). SlotIndexes numbering
is designed to match the existing scheme, so this patch should not cause any
changes in the generated code.
For consistency, and to avoid naming confusion, LiveIndex has been renamed
SlotIndex.
The processImplicitDefs method of the LiveIntervals analysis has been moved
into its own pass so that it can be run prior to SlotIndexes. This was
necessary to match the existing numbering scheme.

The gist of this is if source of some of the copies that feed into a phi join is defined by the phi join, we'd like to eliminate them. However, if any of the non-identity source overlaps the live interval of the phi join then the coalescer won't be able to coalesce them. The early coalescer's job is to eliminate the identity copies by partially-coalescing the two live intervals.

linear scan reg alloc. This fixes a problem I ran into where extracting
a function from a larger file caused the generated code to change (masking
the problem I was trying to debug) because the allocator behaved differently.
This changes the results for two X86 regression checks. stack-color-with-reg
is improved, with one less instruction, but pr3495 is worse, with one more
copy. As far as I can tell, these tests were just getting lucky or unlucky,
so I've changed the expected results.

a new class, MachineInstrIndex, which hides arithmetic details from
most clients. This is a step towards allowing the register allocator
to update/insert code during allocation.

as an (index,bool) pair. The bool flag records whether the kill is a
PHI kill or not. This code will be used to enable splitting of live
intervals containing PHI-kills.
A slight change to live interval weights introduced an extra spill
into lsr-code-insertion (outside the critical sections). The test
condition has been updated to reflect this.

1. Use the same value# to represent unknown values being merged into sub-registers.
2. When coalescer commute an instruction and the destination is a physical register, update its sub-registers by merging in the extended ranges.
