Particularly on MachO, we were generating "blx _dest" instructions on M-class
CPUs, which don't actually exist. They happen to get fixed up by the linker
into valid "bl _dest" instructions (which is why such a massive issue has
remained largely undetected), but we shouldn't rely on that.

callee-saved registers at the end of the lists. Also prefer to avoid using
the low registers that are in register subclasses required by certain
instructions, so that those registers will more likely be available when needed.
This change makes a huge improvement in spilling in some cases. Thanks to
Jakob for helping me realize the problem.
Most of this patch is fixing the testsuite. There are quite a few places
where we're checking for specific registers. I changed those to wildcards
in places where that doesn't weaken the tests. The spill-q.ll and
thumb2-spill-q.ll tests stopped spilling with this change, so I added a bunch
of live values to force spills on those tests.

platform. It's apparently "bl __muldf3" on linux, for example. Since that's
not what we're checking here, it's more robust to just force a triple. We
just wwant to check that the inline FP instructions are only generated
on cpus that have them."
