Function calls and compare instructions tend to cause sext.w
instructions to be inserted. If we make good use of W instructions,
these operations can often end up being redundant. We don't always
detect these during SelectionDAG due to things like phis. There also
some cases caused by failure to turn extload into sextload in
SelectionDAG. extload selects to LW allowing later sext.ws to become
redundant.
This patch adds a pass that examines the input of sext.w instructions trying
to determine if it is already sign extended. Either by finding a
W instruction, other instructions that produce a sign extended result,
or looking through instructions that propagate sign bits. It uses
a worklist and visited set to search as far back as necessary.

Add an alias of `addi [x], zero, imm` to generate pseudo
instruction li, which makes assembly mush more readable.
For existed tests, users can update them by running script
`llvm/utils/update_llc_test_checks.py`.

We already do this for non-constants RHS. This just removes the
special case. I believe the special case may have been needed
because the ANY_EXTEND of a constant used to create zero extended
constants, but we recently changed that to produce sign extended
constants.
D107658 is needed to prevent some regressions.

Summary: Removes CFI CFA directives that could incorrectly propagate
beyond the basic block they were inteded for. Specifically it removes
the epilogue CFI directives. See the branch_and_tail_call test for an
example of the issue. Should fix the stack unwinding issues caused by
the incorrect directives.

Most of the test changes are trivial instruction reorderings and differing
register allocations, without any obvious performance impact.

Some GEPs were not being split, presumably because that split would just be
undone by the DAGCombiner. Not performing those splits can prevent important
optimizations, such as preventing the element indices / member offsets from
being (partially) folded into load/store instruction immediates. This patch:
- Makes the splits also occur in the cases where the base address and the GEP
are in the same BB.
- Ensures that the DAGCombiner doesn't reassociate them back again.
