This also simplifies the code by removing the overly conservative
NoInterveningSideEffect() function. This function checked:
- That the two copies belong to the same block: We only process one
block at a time and clear our maps in between it is impossible to find a
copy from a different block.
- There is no terminator between the two copy instructions: This is not
allowed anyway (the MachineVerifier would complain)
- Does not have instructions with hasUnmodeledSideEffects() or isCall()
set: Even for those instructuction we must have all clobbers/defs of
registers explicit as an operand. If the register is explicitely
clobbered we would never come to the point of checking for
NoInterveningSideEffect() anyway.
(I also checked this with a temporary build of the test-suite with all
potentially failing conditions in NoInterveningSideEffect() turned into
asserts)

This fixes bugs in copy elimination code in llvm. It slightly changes the
semantics of clearRegisterKills(). This is appropriate because:
- Users in lib/CodeGen/MachineCopyPropagation.cpp and
lib/Target/AArch64RedundantCopyElimination.cpp and
lib/Target/SystemZ/SystemZElimCompare.cpp are incorrect without it
(see included testcase).
- All other users in llvm are unaffected (they pass TRI==nullptr)
- (Kill flags are optional anyway so removing too many shouldn't hurt.)
