[DebugInfo][NFC] Force some tests to not use instruction-referencing

There are various tests that need to be adjusted to test the right
thing with instruction referencing -- usually because the internal
representation of variables is different, sometimes that location lists
change. This patch makes a bunch of tests explicitly not use
instruction referencing, so that a check-llvm test with instruction
referencing on for x86_64 doesn't fail. I'll then convert the tests
to have instr-ref CHECK lines, and similar.

[FastISel] Flush local value map on every instruction

[FastISel] Flush local value map on every instruction

Local values are constants or addresses that can't be folded into
the instruction that uses them. FastISel materializes these in a
"local value" area that always dominates the current insertion
point, to try to avoid materializing these values more than once
(per block).

https://reviews.llvm.org/D43093 added code to sink these local
value instructions to their first use, which has two beneficial
effects. One, it is likely to avoid some unnecessary spills and
reloads; two, it allows us to attach the debug location of the
user to the local value instruction. The latter effect can
improve the debugging experience for debuggers with a "set next
statement" feature, such as the Visual Studio debugger and PS4
debugger, because instructions to set up constants for a given
statement will be associated with the appropriate source line.

There are also some constants (primarily addresses) that could be
produced by no-op casts or GEP instructions; the main difference
from "local value" instructions is that these are values from
separate IR instructions, and therefore could have multiple users
across multiple basic blocks. D43093 avoided sinking these, even
though they were emitted to the same "local value" area as the
other instructions. The patch comment for D43093 states:

Local values may also be used by no-op casts, which adds the
register to the RegFixups table. Without reversing the RegFixups
map direction, we don't have enough information to sink these
instructions.

This patch undoes most of D43093, and instead flushes the local
value map after(*) every IR instruction, using that instruction's
debug location. This avoids sometimes incorrect locations used
previously, and emits instructions in a more natural order.

In addition, constants materialized due to PHI instructions are
not assigned a debug location immediately; instead, when the
local value map is flushed, if the first local value instruction
has no debug location, it is given the same location as the
first non-local-value-map instruction. This prevents PHIs
from introducing unattributed instructions, which would either
be implicitly attributed to the location for the preceding IR
instruction, or given line 0 if they are at the beginning of
a machine basic block. Neither of those consequences is good
for debugging.

This does mean materialized values are not re-used across IR
instruction boundaries; however, only about 5% of those values
were reused in an experimental self-build of clang.

(*) Actually, just prior to the next instruction. It seems like
it would be cleaner the other way, but I was having trouble
getting that to work.

This reapplies commits cf1c774d and dc35368c, and adds the
modification to PHI handling, which should avoid problems
with debugging under gdb.

RegAllocFast: Rewrite and improve

This rewrites big parts of the fast register allocator. The basic
strategy of doing block-local allocation hasn't changed but I tweaked
several details:

Track register state on register units instead of physical
registers. This simplifies and speeds up handling of register aliases.
Process basic blocks in reverse order: Definitions are known to end
register livetimes when walking backwards (contrary when walking
forward then uses may or may not be a kill so we need heuristics).

Check register mask operands (calls) instead of conservatively
assuming everything is clobbered. Enhance heuristics to detect
killing uses: In case of a small number of defs/uses check if they are
all in the same basic block and if so the last one is a killing use.
Enhance heuristic for copy-coalescing through hinting: We check the
first k defs of a register for COPYs rather than relying on there just
being a single definition. When testing this on the full llvm
test-suite including SPEC externals I measured:

average 5.1% reduction in code size for X86, 4.9% reduction in code on
aarch64. (ranging between 0% and 20% depending on the test) 0.5%
faster compiletime (some analysis suggests the pass is slightly slower
than before, but we more than make up for it because later passes are
faster with the reduced instruction count)

Also adds a few testcases that were broken without this patch, in
particular bug 47278.

DWARFDebugLoclists: add location list "interpretation" logic

Summary:
This patch extracts the logic for computing the "absolute" locations,
which was partially present in the debug_loclists dumper, completes it,
and moves it into a separate function. This makes it possible to later
reuse the same logic for uses other than dumping.

The dumper is changed to reuse the location list interpreter, and its
format is changed somewhat. In "verbose" mode it prints the "raw" value
of a location list, the interpreted location (if available) and the
expression itself. In non-verbose mode it prints only one of the
location forms: it prefers the interpreted form, but falls back to the
"raw" format if interpretation is not possible (for instance, because we
were not given a base address, or the resolution of indirect addresses
failed).

This patch also undos some of the changes made in D69672, namely the
part about making all functions static. The main reason for this is that
I learned that the original approach (dumping only fully resolved
locations) meant that it was impossible to rewrite one of the existing
tests. To make that possible (and make the "inline location" dump work
in more cases), I now reuse the same dumping mechanism as is used for
section-based dumping. As this required having more objects know about
the various location lists classes, it seemed like a good idea to create
an interface abstracting the difference between them.

Therefore, I now create a DWARFLocationTable class, which will serve as
a base class for the location list classes. DWARFDebugLoclists is made
to inherit from that. DWARFDebugLoc will follow.

Another positive effect of this change is that section-based dumping
code will not need to use templates (as originally) envisioned, and that
the argument lists of the dumping functions become shorter.

DWARFDebugLoclists: Move to a incremental parsing model

Summary:
This patch stems from the discussion D68270 (including some offline
talks). The idea is to provide an "incremental" api for parsing location
lists, which will avoid caching or materializing parsed data. An
additional goal is to provide a high level location list api, which
abstracts the differences between different encoding schemes, and can be
used by users which don't care about those (such as LLDB).

This patch implements the first part. It implements a call-back based
"visitLocationList" api. This function parses a single location list,
calling a user-specified callback for each entry. This is going to be
the base api, which other location list functions (right now, just the
dumping code) are going to be based on.

Future patches will do something similar for the v4 location lists, and
add a mechanism to translate raw entries into concrete address ranges.

[DebugInfo] Remove invalidated locations during LiveDebugValues

LiveDebugValues gives variable locations to blocks, but it should also take
away. There are various circumstances where a variable location is known
until a loop backedge with a different location is detected. In those
circumstances, where there's no agreement on the variable location, it
should be undef / removed, otherwise we end up picking a location that's
valid on some loop iterations but not others.

However, LiveDebugValues doesn't currently do this, see the new testcase
attached. Without this patch, the location of !3 is assumed to be %bar
through the loop. Once it's added to the In-Locations list, it's never
removed, even though the later dbg.value(0... of !3 makes the location
un-knowable.

This patch checks during block-location-joining to see whether any
previously-present locations have been removed in a predecessor. If they
have, the live-ins have changed, and the block needs reprocessing.
Similarly, in transferTerminator, assign rather than |= the Out-Locations
after processing a block, as we may have deleted some previously valid
locations. This will mean that LiveDebugValues performs more propagation
-- but that's necessary for it being correct.

[DebugInfo] Terminate all location-lists at end of block

This commit reapplies r359426 (which was reverted in r360301 due to
performance problems) and rolls in D61940 to address the performance problem.
I've combined the two to avoid creating a span of slow-performance, and to
ease reverting if more problems crop up.

The summary of D61940: This patch removes the "ChangingRegs" facility in
DbgEntityHistoryCalculator, as its overapproximate nature can produce incorrect
variable locations. An unchanging register doesn't mean a variable doesn't
change its location.

The patch kills off everything that calculates the ChangingRegs vector.
Previously ChangingRegs spotted epilogues and marked registers as unchanging if
they weren't modified outside the epilogue, increasing the chance that we can
emit a single-location variable record. Without this feature,
debug-loc-offset.mir and pr19307.mir become temporarily XFAIL. They'll be
re-enabled by D62314, using the FrameDestroy flag to identify epilogues, I've
split this into two steps as FrameDestroy isn't necessarily supported by all
backends.

The logic for terminating variable locations at the end of a basic block now
becomes much more enjoyably simple: we just terminate them all.

Other test changes: inlined-argument.ll becomes XFAIL, but for a longer term.
The current algorithm for detecting that a variable has a single-location
doesn't work in this scenario (inlined function in multiple blocks), only other
bugs were making this test work. fission-ranges.ll gets slightly refreshed too,
as the location of "p" is now correctly determined to be a single location.

[DebugInfo] More strict debug range for stack variables

Variable's stack location can stretch longer than it should. If a
variable is placed at the stack in a some nested basic block its range
can be calculated to be up to the next occurrence of the variable's
DBG_VALUE, or up to the end of the function, thus covering a basic
blocks that should not be included in the variable’s location range.
This happens because the DbgEntityHistoryCalculator ends register
locations at the end of a basic block only if the variable’s location
register has been changed throughout the function, which is not the
case for the register used to reference stack objects.

This patch also tries to produce a single value location if the location
list builder managed to merge all the locations into one.
