Enable multiple COPY hints to eliminate more COPYs during register allocation.
Note that this is something all targets should do, see

Summary:
The MOV/MOVT instructions being chosen for struct_byval predicates was
conditional only on Thumb2, resulting in an ARM MOV/MOVT instruction
being incorrectly emitted in Thumb1 mode. This is especially apparent
with v8-m.base targets. This patch ensures that Thumb instructions are
emitted in both Thumb modes.

This commit implements the correct lowering of the
COPY_STRUCT_BYVAL_I32 pseudo-instruction for thumb1 targets.
Previously, the lowering of COPY_STRUCT_BYVAL_I32 generated the
post-increment forms of ldr/ldrh/ldrb instructions. Thumb1 does not
have the post-increment form of these instructions so the generated
assembly contained invalid instructions.
Passing the generated assembly to gcc caused it to complain with an
error like this:
Error: cannot honor width suffix -- `ldrb r3,[r0],#1'
and the integrated assembler would generate an object file with an
invalid instruction encoding.
This commit contains a small test case that demonstrates the problem
with thumb1 targets as well as an expanded test case that more
throughly tests the lowering of byval struct passing for arm,
thumb1, and thumb2 targets.
