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.

If we are emitting COPY instructions for the REG_SEQUENCE, make sure the kill
flag goes on the last COPY. Otherwise we may be using a killed register.

relatively expensive comparison analyzer on each instruction. Also rename the
comparison analyzer method to something more in line with what it actually does.
This pass is will eventually be folded into the Machine CSE pass.

necessary.
Sometimes, live range splitting doesn't shrink the current interval, but simply
changes some instructions to use a new interval. That makes the original more
suitable for spilling. In this case, we don't need to duplicate the original.

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.

When a physical register is in use, some alias of that register has a live
interval with a relevant live range. That is the sad state of intervals after
physreg coalescing of subregs, and it is good enough for correct register
allocation.

This pass tries to remove comparison instructions when possible. For instance,
if you have this code:
sub r1, 1
cmp r1, 0
bz L1
and "sub" either sets the same flag as the "cmp" instruction or could be
converted to set the same flag, then we can eliminate the "cmp" instruction all
together. This is a important for ARM where the ALU instructions could set the
CPSR flag, but need a special suffix ('s') to do so.

LiveVariables becomes horribly wrong while the coalescer is running, but the
analysis is not zapped until after the coalescer pass has run. This causes tons
of false reports when calling verify form the coalescer.

We verify that the LiveInterval is live at uses and defs, and that all
instructions have a SlotIndex.
Stuff we don't check yet:
- Is the LiveInterval minimal?
- Do all defs correspond to instructions or phis?
- Do all defs dominate all their live ranges?
- Are all live ranges continually reachable from their def?

be killed before being redefined.
These checks are usually disabled, and usually fail when enabled. We de facto
allow live registers to be redefined without a kill, the corresponding
assertions in RegScavenger were removed long ago.

When the normalizeSpillWeights function was introduced, I forgot to remove this
normalization.
This change could affect register allocation. Hopefully for the better.
