The current implementation of skip insertion (SIInsertSkip) makes it a
mandatory pass required for correctness. Initially, the idea was to
have an optional pass. This patch inserts the s_cbranch_execz upfront
during SILowerControlFlow to skip over the sections of code when no
lanes are active. Later, SIRemoveShortExecBranches removes the skips
for short branches, unless there is a sideeffect and the skip branch is
really necessary.
This new pass will replace the handling of skip insertion in the
existing SIInsertSkip Pass.

The use iterator, used within findMaskOperands(), can return anything which is
not a def. isUse() requires a register, so check isReg() before calling isUse().
