Add TargetRegisterInfo::reverseLocalAssignment hook.

Browse Source 
This hook reverses the order of assignment for local live ranges. This
will generally allocate shorter local live ranges first. For targets with
many registers, this could reduce regalloc compile time by a large
factor. It should still achieve optimal coloring; however, it can change
register eviction decisions. It is disabled by default for two reasons:
(1) Top-down allocation is simpler and easier to debug for targets that
don't benefit from reversing the order.
(2) Bottom-up allocation could result in poor evicition decisions on some
targets affecting the performance of compiled code.
