If a block has N predecessors, then the current algorithm will try to
sink common code to this block N times (whenever we visit a
predecessor). Every attempt to sink the common code includes going
through all predecessors, so the complexity of the algorithm becomes
O(N^2).
With this patch we try to sink common code only when we visit the block
itself. With this, the complexity goes down to O(N).
As a side effect, the moment the code is sunk is slightly different than
before (the order of simplifications has been changed), that's why I had
to adjust two tests (note that neither of the tests is supposed to test
SimplifyCFG):
* test/CodeGen/AArch64/arm64-jumptable.ll - changes in this test mimic
the changes that previous implementation of SimplifyCFG would do.
* test/CodeGen/ARM/avoid-cpsr-rmw.ll - in this test I disabled common
code sinking by a command line flag.

This was a real restriction in the original version of SinkIfThenCodeToEnd. Now it's been rewritten, the restriction can be lifted.
As part of this, we handle a very common and useful case where one of the incoming branches is actually conditional. Consider:
if (a)
x(1);
else if (b)
x(2);
This produces the following CFG:
[if]
/ \
[x(1)] [if]
| | \
| | \
| [x(2)] |
\ | /
[ end ]
[end] has two unconditional predecessor arcs and one conditional. The conditional refers to the implicit empty 'else' arc. This same pattern can also be caused by an empty default block in a switch.
We can't sink the call to x() down to end because no call to x() happens on the third incoming arc (assume that x() has sideeffects for the sake of argument; if something is safe to speculate we could indeed sink nevertheless but this cannot happen in the general case and causes many extra selects).
We are now able to detect this case and split off the unconditional arcs to a common successor:
[if]
/ \
[x(1)] [if]
| | \
| | \
| [x(2)] |
\ / |
[sink.split] |
\ /
[ end ]
Now we can sink the call to x() into %sink.split. This can cause significant code simplification in many testcases.

This commit starts with a "git mv ARM64 AArch64" and continues out
from there, renaming the C++ classes, intrinsics, and other
target-local objects for consistency.
"ARM64" test directories are also moved, and tests that began their
life in ARM64 use an arm64 triple, those from AArch64 use an aarch64
triple. Both should be equivalent though.
This finishes the AArch64 merge, and everyone should feel free to
continue committing as normal now.
