is a move between two registers, at least one of the registers is
virtual and the two live intervals do not overlap.
This results in about 40% reduction in intervals, 30% decrease in the
register allocators running time and a 20% increase in peephole
optimizations (mainly move eliminations).
The option can be enabled by passing -join-liveintervals where
appropriate.

when an implicitely defined register is later used by an alias. For example:
call foo
%reg1024 = mov %AL
The call implicitely defines EAX but only AL is used. Before this fix
no information was available on AL. Now EAX and all its aliases except
AL get defined and die at the call instruction whereas AL lives to be
killed by the assignment.

which denotes the register we would like to be assigned to (virtual or
physical). In register allocation, if this hint exists and we can map
it to a physical register (it is either a physical register or it is a
virtual register that already got assigned to a physical one) we use
that register if it is available instead of a random one in the free
pool.

with live intervals was missing registers that were used before they
were defined (in the arbitrary order live intervals numbers
instructions).

killing instruction is tracked. This causes the LiveIntervals to
create bogus intervals. The workaound is to add a range to the
interval from the redefinition to the end of the basic block.

Move some of the longer LiveIntervals::Interval method out of the
header and add debug information to them. Fix bug and simplify range
merging code.

a) remove opIsUse(), opIsDefOnly(), opIsDefAndUse()
b) add isUse(), isDef()
c) rename opHiBits32() to isHiBits32(),
opLoBits32() to isLoBits32(),
opHiBits64() to isHiBits64(),
opLoBits64() to isLoBits64().
This results to much more readable code, for example compare
"op.opIsDef() || op.opIsDefAndUse()" to "op.isDef()" a pattern used
very often in the code.
