It works with clang, but GCC has different rules so we can't make all of those
hidden. This reverts commit r190534.

These floats all represented block frequencies anyway, so just use the
BlockFrequency class directly.
Some floating point computations remain in tryLocalSplit(). They are
estimating spill weights which are still floats.

Original commit message:
Remove floating point computations from SpillPlacement.cpp.
Patch by Benjamin Kramer!
Use the BlockFrequency class instead of floats in the Hopfield network
computations. This rescales the node Bias field from a [-2;2] float
range to two block frequencies BiasN and BiasP pulling in opposite
directions. This construct has a more predictable behavior when block
frequencies saturate.
The per-node scaling factors are no longer necessary, assuming the block
frequencies around a bundle are consistent.
This patch can cause the register allocator to make different spilling
decisions. The differences should be small.

"Remove floating point computations form SpillPlacement.cpp."
These commits caused test failures in lencod on clang-native-arm-lnt.
I suspect these changes are only exposing an existing issue, but
reverting anyway to keep the bots passing while we investigate.

Apply twice the negative bias on transparent blocks when computing the
compact regions. This excludes loop backedges from the region when only
one of the loop blocks uses the register.
Previously, we would include the backedge in the region if the loop
preheader and the loop latch both used the register, but the loop header
didn't.
When both the header and latch blocks use the register, we still keep it
live on the backedge.

The PrefBoth constraint is used for blocks that ideally want a live-in
value both on the stack and in a register. This would be used by a block
that has a use before interference forces a spill.
Secondly, add the ChangesValue flag to BlockConstraint. This tells
SpillPlacement if a live-in value on the stack can be reused as a
live-out stack value for free. If the block redefines the virtual
register, a spill would be required for that.
This extra information will be used by SpillPlacement to more accurately
calculate spill costs when a value can exist both on the stack and in a
register.
The simplest example is a basic block that reads the virtual register,
but doesn't change its value. Spilling around such a block requires a
reload, but no spill in the block.
The spiller already knows this, but the spill placer doesn't. That can
sometimes lead to suboptimal regions.

This method matches addLinks - All the listed blocks are considered to
have interference, so they add a negative bias to their bundles.
This could also be done by addConstraints, but that requires building a
separate BlockConstraint array.

It is common for large live ranges to have few basic blocks with register uses
and many live-through blocks without any uses. This approach grows the Hopfield
network incrementally around the use blocks, completely avoiding checking
interference for some through blocks.

Analyze the live range's behavior entering and leaving basic blocks. Compute an
interference pattern for each allocation candidate, and use SpillPlacement to
find an optimal region where that register can be live.
This code is still not enabled.

This pass precomputes CFG block frequency information that can be used by the
register allocator to find optimal spill code placement.
Given an interference pattern, placeSpills() will compute which basic blocks
should have the current variable enter or exit in a register, and which blocks
prefer the stack.
The algorithm is ready to consume block frequencies from profiling data, but for
now it gets by with the static estimates used for spill weights.
This is a work in progress and still not hooked up to RegAllocGreedy.
