Chris Lattner f542649f1b This patch makes use of the infrastructure implemented before to safely and 
aggressively coallesce live ranges even if they overlap.  Consider this LLVM
code for example:

int %test(int %X) {
        %Y = mul int %X, 1      ;; Codegens to Y = X
        %Z = add int %X, %Y
        ret int %Z
}

The mul is just there to get a copy into the code stream.  This produces
this machine code:

 (0x869e5a8, LLVM BB @0x869b9a0):
        %reg1024 = mov <fi#-2>, 1, %NOREG, 0    ;; "X"
        %reg1025 = mov %reg1024                 ;; "Y"  (subsumed by X)
        %reg1026 = add %reg1024, %reg1025
        %EAX = mov %reg1026
        ret

Note that the life times of reg1024 and reg1025 overlap, even though they
contain the same value.  This results in this machine code:

test:
        mov %EAX, DWORD PTR [%ESP + 4]
        mov %ECX, %EAX
        add %EAX, %ECX
        ret

Another, worse case involves loops and PHI nodes.  Consider this trivial loop:
testcase:

int %test2(int %X) {
entry:
        br label %Loop
Loop:
        %Y = phi int [%X, %entry], [%Z, %Loop]
        %Z = add int %Y, 1
        %cond = seteq int %Z, 100
        br bool %cond, label %Out, label %Loop
Out:
        ret int %Z
}

Because of interactions between the PHI elimination pass and the register
allocator, this got compiled to this code:

test2:
        mov %ECX, DWORD PTR [%ESP + 4]
.LBBtest2_1:
***     mov %EAX, %ECX
        inc %EAX
        cmp %EAX, 100
***     mov %ECX, %EAX
        jne .LBBtest2_1

        ret

Or on powerpc, this code:

_test2:
        mflr r0
        stw r0, 8(r1)
        stwu r1, -60(r1)
.LBB_test2_1:
        addi r2, r3, 1
        cmpwi cr0, r2, 100
***     or r3, r2, r2
        bne cr0, .LBB_test2_1

***     or r3, r2, r2
        lwz r0, 68(r1)
        mtlr r0
        addi r1, r1, 60
        blr 0



With this improvement in place, we now generate this code for these two
testcases, which is what we want:


test:
        mov %EAX, DWORD PTR [%ESP + 4]
        add %EAX, %EAX
        ret

test2:
        mov %EAX, DWORD PTR [%ESP + 4]
.LBBtest2_1:
        inc %EAX
        cmp %EAX, 100
        jne .LBBtest2_1 # Loop
        ret

Or on PPC:

_test2:
        mflr r0
        stw r0, 8(r1)
        stwu r1, -60(r1)
.LBB_test2_1:
        addi r3, r3, 1
        cmpwi cr0, r3, 100
        bne cr0, .LBB_test2_1

        lwz r0, 68(r1)
        mtlr r0
        addi r1, r1, 60
        blr 0
