Before spilling a live range, we split it into a separate range for each basic
block where it is used. That way we only get one reload per basic block if the
new smaller ranges can allocate to a register.
This type of splitting is already present in the standard spiller.

When splitting a live range, the new registers have fewer uses and the
permissible register class may be less constrained. Recompute the register class
constraint from the uses of new registers created for a split. This may let them
be allocated from a larger set, possibly avoiding a spill.

necessary.
Sometimes, live range splitting doesn't shrink the current interval, but simply
changes some instructions to use a new interval. That makes the original more
suitable for spilling. In this case, we don't need to duplicate the original.

After heavy editing of a live interval, it is much easier to simply renumber the
live values instead of trying to keep track of the unused ones.

This is a work in progress. So far we have some basic loop analysis to help
determine where it is useful to split a live range around a loop.
The actual loop splitting code from Splitter.cpp is also going to move in here.
