BranchFolderPass was not correctly setting the basic block branch weights when
tail-merging created or merged blocks. This patch recomutes the weights of
tail-merged blocks using the following formula:
branch_weight(merged block to successor j) =
sum(block_frequency(bb) * branch_probability(bb -> j))
bb is a block that is in the set of merged blocks.

This makes it possible to write unit tests that are less susceptible
to minor code motion, particularly copy placement. block-placement.ll
covers this case with -pre-RA-sched=source which will soon be
default. One incorrectly named block is already fixed, but without
this fix, enabling new coalescing and scheduling would cause more
failures.

Unfortunately, the testcase I have is large and confidential, so I don't have a test to commit at the moment; I'll see if I can come up with something smaller where this issue reproduces.

at the start of basic blocks to their common predecessor. It's actually quite
common (e.g. about 50 times in JM/lencod) and has shown to be a nice code size
benefit. e.g.
pushq %rax
testl %edi, %edi
jne LBB0_2
## BB#1:
xorb %al, %al
popq %rdx
ret
LBB0_2:
xorb %al, %al
callq _foo
popq %rdx
ret
=>
pushq %rax
xorb %al, %al
testl %edi, %edi
je LBB0_2
## BB#1:
callq _foo
LBB0_2:
popq %rdx

running tail duplication when doing branch folding for if-conversion, and
we also want to be able to run tail duplication earlier to fix some
reg alloc problems. Move the CanFallThrough function from BranchFolding
to MachineBasicBlock so that it can be shared by TailDuplication.

instead of typedefs for std::pair. This simplifies the type of
SameTails, which previously was std::vector<std::pair<std::vector<std::pair<unsigned, MachineBasicBlock *> >::iterator, MachineBasicBlock::iterator>

use it to control tail merging when there is a tradeoff between performance
and code size. When there is only 1 instruction in the common tail, we have
been merging. That can be good for code size but is a definite loss for
performance. Now we will avoid tail merging in that case when the
optimization level is "Aggressive", i.e., "-O3". Radar 7338114.
Since the IfConversion pass invokes BranchFolding, it too needs to know
the optimization level. Note that I removed the RegisterPass instantiation
for IfConversion because it required a default constructor. If someone
wants to keep that for some reason, we can add a default constructor with
a hard-wired optimization level.
