Use MIOperand in collectLocalKilledOperands to make the search
global, as we already have to search for global uses too. This
allows us to delete more dead code when tail predicating.

This adds infrastructure to print and parse MIR MachineOperand comments.
The motivation for the ARM backend is to print condition code names instead of
magic constants that are difficult to read (for human beings). For example,
instead of this:
dead renamable $r2, $cpsr = tEOR killed renamable $r2, renamable $r1, 14, $noreg
t2Bcc %bb.4, 0, killed $cpsr
we now print this:
dead renamable $r2, $cpsr = tEOR killed renamable $r2, renamable $r1, 14 /* CC::always */, $noreg
t2Bcc %bb.4, 0 /* CC:eq */, killed $cpsr
This shows that MachineOperand comments are enclosed between /* and */. In this
example, the EOR instruction is not conditionally executed (i.e. it is "always
executed"), which is encoded by the 14 immediate machine operand. Thus, now
this machine operand has /* CC::always */ as a comment. The 0 on the next
conditional branch instruction represents the equal condition code, thus now
this operand has /* CC:eq */ as a comment.
As it is a comment, the MI lexer/parser completely ignores it. The benefit is
that this keeps the change in the lexer extremely minimal and no target
specific parsing needs to be done. The changes on the MIPrinter side are also
minimal, as there is only one target hooks that is used to create the machine
operand comments.

Change the way that we remove the redundant iteration count code in
the presence of IT blocks. collectLocalKilledOperands has been
introduced to scan an instructions operands, collecting the killed
instructions and then visiting them too. This is used to delete the
code in the preheader which calculates the iteration count. We also
track any IT blocks within the preheader and, if we remove all the
instructions from the IT block, we also remove the IT instruction.
isSafeToRemove is used to remove any redundant uses of the iteration
count within the loop body.

Once we have created a tail-predicated hardware-loop, and thus know the number
of elements that are processed, we want to clean-up the iteration count
expression of that loop. In D73682, we bailed the analysis on conditionally
executed instructions. This adds support for IT-blocks, so that we can handle
these cases again. The restriction is that we only support IT blocks containing
1 statement, but that seems to cover most cases and forms of the iteration
count expression.
