393e277ecd Fix PR5024 with a big hammer: disable the double-def assertion in the scavenger.
LiveVariables add implicit kills to correctly track partial register kills. This works well enough and is fairly accurate. But coalescer can make it impossible to maintain these markers. e.g.

        BL <ga:sss1>, %R0<kill,undef>, %S0<kill>, %R0<imp-def>, %R1<imp-def,dead>, %R2<imp-def,dead>, %R3<imp-def,dead>, %R12<imp-def,dead>, %LR<imp-def,dead>, %D0<imp-def>, ...
...
	%reg1031<def> = FLDS <cp#1>, 0, 14, %reg0, Mem:LD4[ConstantPool]
...
   	%S0<def> = FCPYS %reg1031<kill>, 14, %reg0, %D0<imp-use,kill>

When reg1031 and S0 are coalesced, the copy (FCPYS) will be eliminated the the implicit-kill of D0 is lost. In this case it's possible to move the marker to the FLDS. But in many cases, this is not possible. Suppose

	%reg1031<def> = FOO <cp#1>, %D0<imp-def>
...
   	%S0<def> = FCPYS %reg1031<kill>, 14, %reg0, %D0<imp-use,kill>

When FCPYS goes away, the definition of S0 is the "FOO" instruction. However, transferring the D0 implicit-kill to FOO doesn't work since it is the def of D0 itself. We need to fix this in another time by introducing a "kill" pseudo instruction to track liveness.

Disabling the assertion is not ideal, but machine verifier is doing that job now. It's important to know double-def is not a miscomputation since it means a register should be free but it's not tracked as free. It's a performance issue instead.
