Evan Cheng 9fe2009956 Sorry, several patches in one.
TargetInstrInfo:
Change produceSameValue() to take MachineRegisterInfo as an optional argument.
When in SSA form, targets can use it to make more aggressive equality analysis.

Machine LICM:
1. Eliminate isLoadFromConstantMemory, use MI.isInvariantLoad instead.
2. Fix a bug which prevent CSE of instructions which are not re-materializable.
3. Use improved form of produceSameValue.

ARM:
1. Teach ARM produceSameValue to look pass some PIC labels.
2. Look for operands from different loads of different constant pool entries
   which have same values.
3. Re-implement PIC GA materialization using movw + movt. Combine the pair with
   a "add pc" or "ldr [pc]" to form pseudo instructions. This makes it possible
   to re-materialize the instruction, allow machine LICM to hoist the set of
   instructions out of the loop and make it possible to CSE them. It's a bit
   hacky, but it significantly improve code quality.
4. Some minor bug fixes as well.

With the fixes, using movw + movt to materialize GAs significantly outperform the
load from constantpool method. 186.crafty and 255.vortex improved > 20%, 254.gap
and 176.gcc ~10%.
