The old naming scheme (load/use/def/store) can be traced back to an old
linear scan article, but the names don't match how slots are actually
used.
The load and store slots are not needed after the deferred spill code
insertion framework was deleted.
The use and def slots don't make any sense because we are using
half-open intervals as is customary in C code, but the names suggest
closed intervals. In reality, these slots were used to distinguish
early-clobber defs from normal defs.
The new naming scheme also has 4 slots, but the names match how the
slots are really used. This is a purely mechanical renaming, but some
of the code makes a lot more sense now.

The getPrevIndex() function moves to the same slot in the previous
instruction. For getVNInfoBefore(), we just need the previous slot in
the same instruction.

There is only one legitimate use remaining, in addIntervalsForSpills().
All other calls to hasPHIKill() are only used to update PHIKill flags.
The addIntervalsForSpills() function is part of the old spilling
framework, only used by linearscan.

It is conservatively correct to keep the hasPHIKill flags, even after
deleting PHI-defs.
The calculation can be very expensive after taildup has created a
quadratic number of indirectbr edges in the CFG, and the hasPHIKill flag
isn't used for anything after RenumberValues().

Three out of four clients prefer this interface which is consistent with
extendIntervalEndTo() and LiveRangeCalc::extend().

When instructions are deleted, they leave tombstone SlotIndex entries.
The isZeroLength method should ignore these null indexes.
This causes RABasic to sometimes spill a callee-saved register in the
abi-isel.ll test, so don't run that test with -regalloc=basic. Prioritizing
register allocation according to spill weight can cause more registers to be
used.

This could happen when trying to use a value that had been eliminated after dead
code elimination and folding loads.

This method could probably be used by LiveIntervalAnalysis::shrinkToUses, and
now it can use extendIntervalEndTo() which coalesces ranges.

The greedy register allocator revealed some problems with the value mapping in
SplitKit. We would sometimes start mapping values before all defs were known,
and that could change a value from a simple 1-1 mapping to a multi-def mapping
that requires ssa update.
The new approach collects all defs and register assignments first without
filling in any live intervals. Only when finish() is called, do we compute
liveness and mapped values. At this time we know with certainty which values map
to multiple values in a split range.
This also has the advantage that we can compute live ranges based on the
remaining uses after rematerializing at split points.
The current implementation has many opportunities for compile time optimization.

physical register numbers.
This makes the hack used in LiveInterval official, and lets LiveInterval be
oblivious of stack slots.
The isPhysicalRegister() and isVirtualRegister() predicates don't know about
this, so when a variable may contain a stack slot, isStackSlot() should always
be tested first.

connected components. These components should be allocated different virtual
registers because there is no reason for them to be allocated together.
Add the ConnectedVNInfoEqClasses class to calculate the connected components,
and move values to new LiveIntervals.
Use it from SplitKit::rewrite by creating new virtual registers for the
components.

LiveInterval::MergeValueNumberInto instead of trying to extend LiveRanges and
getting it wrong.
This fixed PR8249 where a valno with a multi-segment live range was defined by
an identity copy created by RemoveCopyByCommutingDef. Some of the live
segments disappeared.

instead of calling lower_bound or upper_bound directly.
This cleans up the search logic a bit because {lower,upper}_bound compare
LR->start by default, and it is usually simpler to search LR->end.
Funnelling all searches through one function also makes it possible to replace
the search algorithm with something faster than binary search.

Clobber ranges are no longer used when joining physical registers.
Instead, all aliases are checked for interference.

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.

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.

This allows us to recognize the common case where all uses could be
rematerialized, and no stack slot allocation is necessary.
If some values could be fully rematerialized, remove them from the live range
before allocating a stack slot for the rest.

The VNInfo.kills vector was almost unused except for all the code keeping it
updated. The few places using it were easily rewritten to check for interval
ends instead.
The two new methods LiveInterval::killedAt and killedInRange are replacements.
This brings us down to 3 independent data structures tracking kills.

This introduces a new pass, SlotIndexes, which is responsible for numbering
instructions for register allocation (and other clients). SlotIndexes numbering
is designed to match the existing scheme, so this patch should not cause any
changes in the generated code.
For consistency, and to avoid naming confusion, LiveIndex has been renamed
SlotIndex.
The processImplicitDefs method of the LiveIntervals analysis has been moved
into its own pass so that it can be run prior to SlotIndexes. This was
necessary to match the existing numbering scheme.

The gist of this is if source of some of the copies that feed into a phi join is defined by the phi join, we'd like to eliminate them. However, if any of the non-identity source overlaps the live interval of the phi join then the coalescer won't be able to coalesce them. The early coalescer's job is to eliminate the identity copies by partially-coalescing the two live intervals.

linear scan reg alloc. This fixes a problem I ran into where extracting
a function from a larger file caused the generated code to change (masking
the problem I was trying to debug) because the allocator behaved differently.
This changes the results for two X86 regression checks. stack-color-with-reg
is improved, with one less instruction, but pr3495 is worse, with one more
copy. As far as I can tell, these tests were just getting lucky or unlucky,
so I've changed the expected results.
