Implement optimizeCompareInstr for PPC
Many PPC instructions have a so-called 'record form' which stores to a specific condition register the result of comparing the result of the instruction with zero (always as a signed comparison). For integer operations on PPC64, this is always a 64-bit comparison. This implementation is derived from the implementation in the ARM backend; there are some differences because PPC condition registers are allocatable virtual registers (although the record forms always use a specific one), and we look for a matching subtraction instruction after the compare (but before the first use) in addition to before it. llvm-svn: 179802
