Fix the worse case performance of ICF.
r288228 seems to have regressed ICF performance in some cases in which a lot of sections are actually mergeable. In r288228, I made a change to create a Range object for each new color group. So every time we split a group, we allocated and added a new group to a list of groups. This patch essentially reverted r288228 with an improvement to parallelize the original algorithm. Now the ICF main loop is entirely allocation-free and lock-free. Just like pre-r288228, we search for group boundaries by linear scan instead of managing the information using Range class. r288228 was neutral in performance-wise, and so is this patch. I confirmed that this produces the exact same result as before using chromium and clang as tests. llvm-svn: 288480
