Chris Lattner 7fb64347d7 Substantially revamp the local spiller, causing it to actually improve the generated code over the simple spiller. The new local spiller generates substantially better code than the simple one in some cases, by reusing values that are loaded out of stack slots and kept available in registers. This primarily helps programs that are spilling a lot, and there is still stuff that can be done to improve it. This patch makes the local spiller the default, as it's only a tiny bit slower than the simple spiller (it increases the runtime of llc by < 1%). Here are some numbers with speedups.
