Some implementation detail in the forgotten past required the link
register to be placed in the GPRC and G8RC register classes. This is
just wrong on the face of it, and causes several extra intersection
register classes to be generated. I found this was having evil
effects on instruction scheduling, by causing the wrong register class
to be consulted for register pressure decisions.
No code generation changes are expected, other than some minor changes
in instruction order. Seven tests in the test bucket required minor
tweaks to adjust to the new normal.

This patch implements the PPCDAGToDAGISel::PostprocessISelDAG virtual
method to perform post-selection peephole optimizations on the DAG
representation.
One optimization is implemented here: folds to clean up complex
addressing expressions for thread-local storage and medium code
model. It will also be useful for large code model sequences when
those are added later. I originally thought about doing this on the
MI representation prior to register assignment, but it's difficult to
do effective global dead code elimination at that point. DCE is
trivial on the DAG representation.
A typical example of a candidate code sequence in assembly:
addis 3, 2, globalvar@toc@ha
addi 3, 3, globalvar@toc@l
lwz 5, 0(3)
When the final instruction is a load or store with an immediate offset
of zero, the offset from the add-immediate can replace the zero,
provided the relocation information is carried along:
addis 3, 2, globalvar@toc@ha
lwz 5, globalvar@toc@l(3)
Since the addi can in general have multiple uses, we need to only
delete the instruction when the last use is removed.
