useAA significantly improves the handling of vector code that has TBAA
information attached. It also helps other cases, as shown by the testsuite
changes here. The only real downside I've seen is that it interferes with
MergeConsecutiveStores. The problem is that that optimization works top
down, starting at the first store in the chain, and looks for cases where
the chain result is only used by a single related store. These related
stores don't alias, so useAA will have rewritten all the later stores to
use a different chain input (typically the same one as the first store).
I think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages though, so for now I've
just disabled alias analysis for the unaligned-01.ll test.

Making useAA() default to true for SystemZ showed that the combiner alias
analysis wasn't handling volatile accesses. This hit many of the SystemZ
tests, but I arbitrarily picked one for the purpose of this patch.

This update was done with the following bash script:
find test/CodeGen -name "*.ll" | \
while read NAME; do
echo "$NAME"
if ! grep -q "^; *RUN: *llc.*debug" $NAME; then
TEMP=`mktemp -t temp`
cp $NAME $TEMP
sed -n "s/^define [^@]*@\([A-Za-z0-9_]*\)(.*$/\1/p" < $NAME | \
while read FUNC; do
sed -i '' "s/;\(.*\)\([A-Za-z0-9_-]*\):\( *\)$FUNC: *\$/;\1\2-LABEL:\3$FUNC:/g" $TEMP
done
sed -i '' "s/;\(.*\)-LABEL-LABEL:/;\1-LABEL:/" $TEMP
sed -i '' "s/;\(.*\)-NEXT-LABEL:/;\1-NEXT:/" $TEMP
sed -i '' "s/;\(.*\)-NOT-LABEL:/;\1-NOT:/" $TEMP
sed -i '' "s/;\(.*\)-DAG-LABEL:/;\1-DAG:/" $TEMP
mv $TEMP $NAME

Add a mapping from register-based <INSN>R instructions to the corresponding
memory-based <INSN>. Use it to cut down on the number of spill loads.
Some instructions extend their operands from smaller fields, so this
required a new TSFlags field to say how big the unextended operand is.
This optimisation doesn't trigger for C(G)R and CL(G)R because in practice
we always combine those instructions with a branch. Adding a test for every
other case probably seems excessive, but it did catch a missed optimisation
for DSGF (fixed in r185435).

Unlike most -- hopefully "all other", but I'm still checking -- memory
instructions we support, LOAD REVERSED and STORE REVERSED may access
the memory location several times. This means that they are not suitable
for volatile loads and stores.
This patch is a prerequisite for better atomic load and store support.
The same principle applies there: almost all memory instructions we
support are inherently atomic ("block concurrent"), but LOAD REVERSED
and STORE REVERSED are exceptions.
Other instructions continue to allow volatile operands. I will add
positive "allows volatile" tests at the same time as the "allows atomic
load or store" tests.

This adds all CodeGen tests for the SystemZ target.
This version of the patch incorporates feedback from a review by
Sean Silva. Thanks to all reviewers!
