Tim Northover 7687bcee4a AArch64: always clear kill flags up to last eliminated copy
After r261154, we were only clearing flags if the known-zero register was
originally live-in to the basic block, but we have to do it even if not when
more than one COPY has been eliminated, otherwise the user of the first COPY
may still have <kill> marked.

E.g.

BB#N:
    %X0 = COPY %XZR
    STRXui %X0<kill>, <fi#0>
    %X0 = COPY %XZR
    STRXui %X0<kill>, <fi#1>

We can eliminate both copies, X0 is not live-in, but we must clear the kill on
the first store.

Unfortunately, I've been unable to come up with a non-fragile test for this.
I've only seen it in the wild with regalloc-created spills, and attempts to
reproduce that in a reasonable way run afoul of COPY coalescing. Even volatile
asm clobbers were moved around. Should fix the aarch64 bot though.

Tim Northover 3f2285615a AArch64: improve redundant copy elimination.
Mostly, this fixes the bug that if the CBZ guaranteed Xn but Wn was used, we
didn't sort out the use-def chain properly.

I've also made it check more than just the last instruction for a compatible
CBZ (so it can cope without fallthroughs). I'd have liked to do that
separately, but it's helps writing the test.

Finally, I removed some custom loops in favour of MachineInstr helpers and
refactored the control flow to flatten it and avoid possibly quadratic
iterations in blocks with many copies. NFC for these, just a general tidy-up.

Jun Bum Lim b389d9b9af [AArch64] Add pass to remove redundant copy after RA
Summary:
This change will add a pass to remove unnecessary zero copies in target blocks
of cbz/cbnz instructions. E.g., the copy instruction in the code below can be
removed because the cbz jumps to BB1 when x0 is zero :
  BB0:
    cbz x0, .BB1
  BB1:
    mov x0, xzr
