      This patch makes use of the infrastructure implemented before to safely and · ccc75d4f

      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
      
      
      Static numbers for spill code loads/stores/reg-reg copies (smaller is better):

      same as the PHI use.  This is not correct as the PHI use value is different
      depending on which branch is taken.  This fixes espresso with aggressive
      coallescing, and perhaps others.
