[AMDGPU] Allow hoisting of comparisons out of a loop and eliminate condition copies

Codegen prepare sinks comparisons close to a user is we have only one register
for conditions. For AMDGPU we have many SGPRs capable to hold vector conditions.
Changed BE to report we have many condition registers. That way IR LICM pass
would hoist an invariant comparison out of a loop and codegen prepare will not
sink it.

With that done a condition is calculated in one block and used in another.
Current behavior is to store workitem's condition in a VGPR using v_cndmask
and then restore it with yet another v_cmp instruction from that v_cndmask's
result. To mitigate the issue a forward propagation of a v_cmp 64 bit result
to an user is implemented. Additional side effect of this is that we may
consume less VGPRs in a cost of more SGPRs in case if holding of multiple
conditions is needed, and that is a clear win in most cases.
