If a live range is used by a terminator instruction, and that live range needs
to leave the block on the stack or in a different register, it can be necessary
to have both sides of the split live at the terminator instruction.
Example:
%vreg2 = COPY %vreg1
JMP %vreg1
Becomes after spilling %vreg2:
SPILL %vreg1
JMP %vreg1
The spill doesn't kill the register as is normally the case.

A live range cannot be split everywhere in a basic block. A split must go before
the first terminator, and if the variable is live into a landing pad, the split
must happen before the call that can throw.

If the found value is not live-through the block, we should only add liveness up
to the requested slot index. When the value is live-through, the whole block
should be colored.

These end points come from the inserted copies, and can be passed directly to
useIntv. This simplifies the coloring code.

The greedy register allocator revealed some problems with the value mapping in
SplitKit. We would sometimes start mapping values before all defs were known,
and that could change a value from a simple 1-1 mapping to a multi-def mapping
that requires ssa update.
The new approach collects all defs and register assignments first without
filling in any live intervals. Only when finish() is called, do we compute
liveness and mapped values. At this time we know with certainty which values map
to multiple values in a split range.
This also has the advantage that we can compute live ranges based on the
remaining uses after rematerializing at split points.
The current implementation has many opportunities for compile time optimization.

Region splitting includes loop splitting as a subset, and it is more generic.
The splitting heuristics for variables that are live in more than one block are
now:
1. Try to create a region that covers multiple basic blocks.
2. Try to create a new live range for each block with multiple uses.
3. Spill.
Steps 2 and 3 are similar to what the standard spiller is doing.

Analyze the live range's behavior entering and leaving basic blocks. Compute an
interference pattern for each allocation candidate, and use SpillPlacement to
find an optimal region where that register can be live.

The analysis will be needed by both the greedy register allocator and the
X86FloatingPoint pass. It only needs to be computed once when the CFG doesn't
change.
This pass is very fast, usually showing up as 0.0% wall time.

Edge bundles is an annotation on the CFG that turns it into a bipartite directed
graph where each basic block is connected to an outgoing and an ingoing bundle.
These bundles are useful for identifying regions of the CFG for live range
splitting.

the loop predecessors.
The register can be live-out from a predecessor without being live-in to the
loop header if there is a critical edge from the predecessor.

Bypass loops have the current live range live through, but contain no uses or
defs. Splitting around a bypass loop can free registers for other uses inside
the loop by spilling the split range.

Whenever splitting wants to insert a copy, it checks if the value can be
rematerialized cheaply instead.
Missing features:
- Delete instructions when all uses have been rematerialized.
- Truncate live ranges to the remaining uses after rematerialization.
