The machine scheduler currently biases register copies to/from
physical registers to be closer to their point of use / def to
minimize their live ranges. This change extends this to also physical
register assignments from immediate values.
This causes a reduction in reduction in overall register pressure and
minor reduction in spills and indirectly fixes an out-of-registers
assertion (PR39391).
Most test changes are from minor instruction reorderings and register
name selection changes and direct consequences of that.

Enable enableMultipleCopyHints() on X86.
Original Patch by @jonpa:
While enabling the mischeduler for SystemZ, it was discovered that for some reason a test needed one extra seemingly needless COPY (test/CodeGen/SystemZ/call-03.ll). The handling for that is resulted in this patch, which improves the register coalescing by providing not just one copy hint, but a sorted list of copy hints. On SystemZ, this gives ~12500 less register moves on SPEC, as well as marginally less spilling.
Instead of improving just the SystemZ backend, the improvement has been implemented in common-code (calculateSpillWeightAndHint(). This gives a lot of test failures, but since this should be a general improvement I hope that the involved targets will help and review the test updates.

In preparation for adding support for named vregs we are changing the sigil for
physical registers in MIR to '$' from '%'. This will prevent name clashes of
named physical register with named vregs.

As part of the unification of the debug format and the MIR format, print
MBB references as '%bb.5'.
The MIR printer prints the IR name of a MBB only for block definitions.

As part of the unification of the debug format and the MIR format,
always print registers as lowercase.
* Only debug printing is affected. It now follows MIR.

An identity COPY like this:
%AL = COPY %AL, %EAX<imp-def>
has no semantic effect, but encodes liveness information: Further users
of %EAX only depend on this instruction even though it does not define
the full register.
Replace the COPY with a KILL instruction in those cases to maintain this
liveness information. (This reverts a small part of r238588 but this
time adds a comment explaining why a KILL instruction is useful).

This re-applies r268760, reverted in r268794.
Fixes http://llvm.org/PR27670
The original imp-defs assertion was way overzealous: forward all
implicit operands, except imp-defs of the new super-reg def (r268787
for GR64, but also possible for GR16->GR32), or imp-uses of the new
super-reg use.
While there, mark the source use as Undef, and add an imp-use of the
old source reg: that should cover any case of dead super-regs.
At the stage the pass runs, flags are unlikely to matter anyway;
still, let's be as correct as possible.
Also add MIR tests for the various interesting cases.
Original commit message:
Codesize is less (16) or equal (8), and we avoid partial
dependencies.

leads to partial-register definitions. To help avoid redundant
zero-extensions, also teach the h-register matching patterns that
use movzbl to match anyext as well as zext.
