[RegAlloc, SystemZ] Increase number of LOCRs by passing "hard" regalloc hints.

* The method getRegAllocationHints() is now of bool type instead of void. If
true is returned, regalloc (AllocationOrder) will *only* try to allocate the
hints, as opposed to merely trying them before non-hinted registers.

* TargetRegisterInfo::getRegAllocationHints() is implemented for SystemZ with
an increase in number of LOCRs.

In this case, it is desired to force the hints even though there is a slight
increase in spilling, because if a non-hinted register would be allocated,
the LOCRMux pseudo would have to be expanded with a jump sequence. The LOCR
(Load On Condition) SystemZ instruction must have both operands in either the
low or high part of the 64 bit register.
