Summary:
Mem op clustering adds a weak edge in the DAG between two loads or
stores that should be clustered, but the direction of this edge is
pretty arbitrary (it depends on the sort order of MemOpInfo, which
represents the operands of a load or store). This often means that two
loads or stores will get reordered even if they would naturally have
been scheduled together anyway, which leads to test case churn and goes
against the scheduler's "do no harm" philosophy.
The fix makes sure that the direction of the edge always matches the
original code order of the instructions.

In preparation for adding support for named vregs we are changing the sigil for
physical registers in MIR to '$' from '%'. This will prevent name clashes of
named physical register with named vregs.

Add an assert that checks whether liveins are up to date before they are
used.
- Do not print liveins into .mir files anymore in situations where they
are out of date anyway.
- The assert in the RegisterScavenger is superseded by the new one in
livein_begin().
- Skip parts of the liveness updating logic in IfConversion.cpp when
liveness isn't tracked anymore (just enough to avoid hitting the new
assert()).

test/CodeGen/MIR should contain tests that intent to test the MIR
printing or parsing. Tests that test something else should be in
test/CodeGen/TargetName even when they are written in .mir.
As a rule of thumb, only tests using "llc -run-pass none" should be in
test/CodeGen/MIR.
