A REG_SEQUENCE instruction is lowered into a sequence of partial defs:
%vreg7:ssub_0<def,undef> = COPY %vreg20:ssub_0
%vreg7:ssub_1<def> = COPY %vreg2
%vreg7:ssub_2<def> = COPY %vreg2
%vreg7:ssub_3<def> = COPY %vreg2
The first def needs an <undef> flag to indicate it is the beginning of
the live range, while the other defs are read-modify-write. Previously,
we depended on LiveIntervalAnalysis to notice and fix the missing
<def,undef>, but that solution was never robust, it was causing problems
with ProcessImplicitDefs and the lowering of chained REG_SEQUENCE
instructions.
This fixes PR11841.

callee-saved registers at the end of the lists. Also prefer to avoid using
the low registers that are in register subclasses required by certain
instructions, so that those registers will more likely be available when needed.
This change makes a huge improvement in spilling in some cases. Thanks to
Jakob for helping me realize the problem.
Most of this patch is fixing the testsuite. There are quite a few places
where we're checking for specific registers. I changed those to wildcards
in places where that doesn't weaken the tests. The spill-q.ll and
thumb2-spill-q.ll tests stopped spilling with this change, so I added a bunch
of live values to force spills on those tests.

Update all the tests using those intrinsics and add support for
auto-upgrading bitcode files with the old versions of the intrinsics.

disabled and then never turned back on again. Adjust some tests, one because
this change avoids an unnecessary instruction, and the other to make it
continue testing what it was intended to test.

A partial redefine needs to be treated like a tied operand, and the register
must be reloaded while processing use operands.
This fixes a bug where partially redefined registers were processed as normal
defs with a reload added. The reload could clobber another use operand if it was
a kill that allowed register reuse.
