The old naming scheme (load/use/def/store) can be traced back to an old
linear scan article, but the names don't match how slots are actually
used.
The load and store slots are not needed after the deferred spill code
insertion framework was deleted.
The use and def slots don't make any sense because we are using
half-open intervals as is customary in C code, but the names suggest
closed intervals. In reality, these slots were used to distinguish
early-clobber defs from normal defs.
The new naming scheme also has 4 slots, but the names match how the
slots are really used. This is a purely mechanical renaming, but some
of the code makes a lot more sense now.

This virtual function will replace allocation_order_begin/end as the one
to override when implementing custom allocation orders. It is simpler to
have one function return an ArrayRef than having two virtual functions
computing different ends of the same array.
Use getRawAllocationOrder() in place of allocation_order_begin() where
it makes sense, but leave some clients that look like they really want
the filtered allocation orders from RegisterClassInfo.

perform initialization without static constructors AND without explicit initialization
by the client. For the moment, passes are required to initialize both their
(potential) dependencies and any passes they preserve. I hope to be able to relax
the latter requirement in the future.
