LLVM backend for 6502

algorithm when assigning EnumValues to the synthesized registers. The current algorithm, LessRecord, uses the StringRef compare_numeric function. This function compares strings, while handling embedded numbers. For example, the R600 backend registers are sorted as follows: T1 T1_W T1_X T1_XYZW T1_Y T1_Z T2 T2_W T2_X T2_XYZW T2_Y T2_Z In this example, the 'scaling factor' is dEnum/dN = 6 because T0, T1, T2 have an EnumValue offset of 6 from one another. However, in other parts of the register bank, the scaling factors are different: dEnum/dN = 5: KC0_128_W KC0_128_X KC0_128_XYZW KC0_128_Y KC0_128_Z KC0_129_W KC0_129_X KC0_129_XYZW KC0_129_Y KC0_129_Z The diff lists do not work correctly because different kinds of registers have different 'scaling factors'. This new algorithm, LessRecordRegister, tries to enforce a scaling factor of 1. For example, the registers are now sorted as follows: T1 T2 T3 ... T0_W T1_W T2_W ... T0_X T1_X T2_X ... KC0_128_W KC0_129_W KC0_130_W ... For the Mips and R600 I see a 19% and 6% reduction in size, respectively. I did see a few small regressions, but the differences were on the order of a few bytes (e.g., AArch64 was 16 bytes). I suspect there will be even greater wins for targets with larger register files.
