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.

it looked for was gone already (but the FileCheck pattern picked up unrelated
stuff).

This currently unused function appeared to be asserting in the wrong
direction - DebugValues are never definitions of registers, only uses.
Curiously we don't perform any of these checks for the more common (&
actually used) case of MachineOperand::CreateReg (or other Create
functions).

Replace the ill-defined MinLatency and ILPWindow properties with
with straightforward buffer sizes:
MCSchedMode::MicroOpBufferSize
MCProcResourceDesc::BufferSize
These can be used to more precisely model instruction execution if desired.
Disabled some misched tests temporarily. They'll be reenabled in a few commits.

Archive files (.a) can have a symbol table indicating which object
files in them define which symbols. The purpose of this symbol table
is to speed up linking by allowing the linker the read only the .o
files it is actually going to use instead of having to parse every
object's symbol table.
LLVM's archive library currently supports a LLVM specific format for
such table. It is hard to see any value in that now that llvm-ld is
gone:
* System linkers don't use it: GNU ar uses the same plugin as the
linker to create archive files with a regular index. The OS X ar
creates no symbol table for IL files, I assume the linker just parses
all IL files.
* It doesn't interact well with archives having both IL and native objects.
* We probably don't want to be responsible for yet another archive
format variant.
This patch then:
* Removes support for creating and reading such index from lib/Archive.
* Remove llvm-ranlib, since there is nothing left for it to do.
We should in the future add support for regular indexes to llvm-ar for
both native and IL objects. When we do that, llvm-ranlib should be
reimplemented as a symlink to llvm-ar, as it is equivalent to "ar s".

This is in preparation for switching the clang driver over to using LLVM's
Option library. Richard Smith introduced most of these changes to the clang
driver in r167638.

I've been comparing the object file output of LLVM's integrated
assembler against the external assembler on PowerPC, and one
area where differences still remain are in DWARF sections.
In particular, the GNU assembler generates .debug_frame and
.debug_line sections using a code alignment factor of 4, since
all PowerPC instructions have size 4 and must be aligned to a
multiple of 4. However, current MC code hard-codes a code
alignment factor of 1.
This patch changes this by adding a "minimum instruction alignment"
data element to MCAsmInfo and using this as code alignment factor.
This requires passing a MCContext into MCDwarfLineAddr::Encode
and MCDwarfLineAddr::EncodeAdvanceLoc. Note that one caller,
MCDwarfLineAddr::Write, didn't actually have that information
available. However, it turns out that this routine is in fact
never used in the whole code base, so the patch simply removes
it. If it turns out to be needed again at a later time, it
could be re-added with an updated interface.
