    [regalloc] Land control flow aware allocation · 66771f42
    Stephan Herhut authored
    This change lands a change to the register allocator. Other than
    classical linear scan, we now take control flow events into account
    when deciding spill descisions.
    
    The basic idea is to restore the state of a predecessor on entry
    of a successor. In the case of multiple predecessors, we use
    heuristics to compute the new state based on the predecessors.
    
    The main addition to the machinery is to support unspilling
    live ranges and to undo live range splitting in certain cases.
    
    Currently, disabled behind a flag.
