    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%.
