PowerPC has its custom scheduler heuristic. It calls parent classes'
tryCandidate in override version, but the function returns void, so this
way doesn't actually help. This patch duplicates code from base scheduler
into PPC machine scheduler class, which does what we wanted.

The instruction addi is usually used to post increase the loop indvar, which looks like this:
label_X:
load x, base(i)
...
y = op x
...
i = addi i, 1
goto label_X
However, for PowerPC, if there are too many vsx instructions that between y = op x and i = addi i, 1,
it will use all the hw resource that block the execution of i = addi, i, 1, which result in the stall
of the load instruction in next iteration. So, a heuristic is added to move the addi as early as possible
to have the load hide the latency of vsx instructions, if other heuristic didn't apply to avoid the starve.

Summary:
If we didn't set the value for hasSideEffects bit in our td file, `llvm-tblgen`
will set it as true for those instructions which has no match pattern.
The instructions `MTLR` and `MFLR` don't set the hasSideEffects flag and don't
have match pattern, so their hasSideEffects flag will be set true by
`llvm-tblgen`.
But in fact, we can use `[LR]` to model the two instructions, so they should not
have SideEffects.
This patch is to modify the hasSideEffects of MTLR and MFLR from 1 to 0.

CFI information are non-relevant to quite some testcases,
we should get rid of checking them when its unecessary.
This patch avoid generating cfi info in testcases that are not
testing prolog/epilog or exception handling.
