This will enable the PBQP register allocator to provide its own normalizing function.

Besides, this relates it more obviously to the VirtRegAuxInfo::calculateSpillWeightAndHint.

Based on discussions with Lang Hames and Jakob Stoklund Olesen at the hacker's lab, and in the light of upcoming work on the PBQP register allocator, it was though that CalcSpillWeights does not need to be a pass. This change will enable to customize / tune the spill weight computation depending on the allocator.
Update the documentation style while there.

The main advantages here are way better heuristics, taking into account not
just loop depth but also __builtin_expect and other static heuristics and will
eventually learn how to use profile info. Most of the work in this patch is
pushing the MachineBlockFrequencyInfo analysis into the right places.
This is good for a 5% speedup on zlib's deflate (x86_64), there were some very
unfortunate spilling decisions in its hottest loop in longest_match(). Other
benchmarks I tried were mostly neutral.
This changes register allocation in subtle ways, update the tests for it.
2012-02-20-MachineCPBug.ll was deleted as it's very fragile and the instruction
it looked for was gone already (but the FileCheck pattern picked up unrelated
stuff).

AKA: Recompile *ALL* the source code!
This one went much better. No manual edits here. I spot-checked for
silliness and grep-checked for really broken edits and everything seemed
good. It all still compiles. Yell if you see something that looks goofy.

This function doesn't have anything to do with spill weights, and MRI
already has functions for manipulating the register class of a virtual
register.

This has two effects: 1. We never inflate to a larger register class than what
the sub-target can handle. 2. Completely unconstrained virtual registers get the
largest possible register class.

Simplify the spill weight calculation a bit by bypassing
getApproximateInstructionCount() and using LiveInterval::getSize() directly.
This changes the computed spill weights, but only by a constant factor in each
function. It should not affect how spill weights compare against each other, and
so it shouldn't affect code generation.

must be called in the pass's constructor. This function uses static dependency declarations to recursively initialize
the pass's dependencies.
Clients that only create passes through the createFooPass() APIs will require no changes. Clients that want to use the
CommandLine options for passes will need to manually call the appropriate initialization functions in PassInitialization.h
before parsing commandline arguments.
I have tested this with all standard configurations of clang and llvm-gcc on Darwin. It is possible that there are problems
with the static dependencies that will only be visible with non-standard options. If you encounter any crash in pass
registration/creation, please send the testcase to me directly.

When splitting a live range, the new registers have fewer uses and the
permissible register class may be less constrained. Recompute the register class
constraint from the uses of new registers created for a split. This may let them
be allocated from a larger set, possibly avoiding a spill.

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.
