Normally, if any registers are spilled, we prefer to spill lr on Thumb1
so we can fold the "bx lr" into the "pop". However, if there are tail
calls involved, restoring lr is expensive, so skip the optimization in
that case.
The spill of r7 in the new test also isn't necessary, but that's
mostly orthogonal to this patch. (It's the same code in
ARMFrameLowering, but it's not related to tail calls.)

load instruction
The function `Thumb1InstrInfo::loadRegFromStackSlot` accepts only the `tGPR`
register class. The function serves to emit a `tLDRspi` instruction and
certainly any subset of the `tGPR` register class is a valid destination of the
load.

Summary:
The compiler fails with the following error message:
fatal error: error in backend: ran out of registers during
register allocation
Tail call optimization for Armv8-M.base fails to meet all the required
constraints when handling calls to function pointers where the
arguments take up r0-r3. This is because the pointer to the
function to be called can only be stored in r0-r3, but these are
all occupied by arguments. This patch makes sure that tail call
optimization does not try to handle this type of calls.

The commit https://reviews.llvm.org/rL318143 computes incorrectly to offset to
restore LR from.
The number of tPOP operands is 2 (condition) + 2 (implicit def and use of SP) +
count of the popped registers. We need to load LR from just past the last
register, hence the correct offset should be either getNumOperands() - 4 and
getNumExplicitOperands() - 2 (multiplied by 4).

When we emit a tail call for Armv8-M, but then discover that the caller needs to
save/restore `LR`, we convert the tail call to an ordinary one, since restoring
`LR` takes extra instructions, which may negate the benefits of the tail
call. If the callee, however, takes stack arguments, this conversion is
incorrect, since nothing has been done to pass the stack arguments.
Thus the patch reverts https://reviews.llvm.org/rL294000
Also, we improve the instruction sequence for popping `LR` in the case when we
couldn't immediately find a scratch low register, but we can use as a temporary
one of the callee-saved low registers and restore `LR` before popping other
callee-saves.

Summary:
The tail call optimisation is performed before register allocation, so
at that point we don't know if LR is being spilt or not. If LR was spilt
to the stack, then we cannot do a tail call optimisation. That would
involve popping back into LR which is not possible in Thumb1 code.
