In preparation for adding support for named vregs we are changing the sigil for
physical registers in MIR to '$' from '%'. This will prevent name clashes of
named physical register with named vregs.

In D41587, @mssimpso discovered that the order of some patterns for
AArch64 was sub-optimal. I thought a bit about how we could avoid that
case in the future. I do not think there is a need for evaluating all
patterns for now. But this patch adds an extra (expensive) check, that
evaluates the latencies of all patterns, and ensures that the latency
saved decreases for subsequent patterns.
This catches the sub-optimal order fixed in D41587, but I am not
entirely happy with the check, as it only applies to sub-optimal
patterns seen while building with EXPENSIVE_CHECKS on. It did not
discover any other sub-optimal pattern ordering.

r319980 added new patterns to the machine combiner for transforming (fsub (fmul
x y) z) into (fmla (fneg z) x y). That is, fsub's where the first source
operand is an fmul are transformed. We previously only matched the case where
the second source operand of an fsub was an fmul, transforming (fsub z (fmul x
y)) into (fmls z x y). Now, if we have an fsub where both source operands are
fmuls, both of the above patterns are applicable.
However, the order in which we add the patterns to the list of candidates
determines the transformation that takes place, since only the first pattern
that matches will be used. This patch changes the order these two patterns are
added to the list of candidates such that we prefer the case where the second
source operand is an fmul (the fmls case), rather than the other one (the
fmla/fneg case). When both source operands are fmuls, this ordering results in
fewer instructions.

Summary:
This patch adds MachineCombiner patterns for transforming
(fsub (fmul x y) z) into (fma x y (fneg z)). This has a lower
latency on micro architectures where fneg is cheap.
Patch based on work by George Steed.
