I noticed unnecessary 'sbb' instructions in D30472 and while looking at 'ptest' codegen recently.
This happens because we were transforming any 'setb' - even when we only wanted a single-bit result.
This patch moves those transforms under visitAdd/visitSub, so we we're only creating sbb/adc when it
is a win. I don't know why we need a SETCC_CARRY node type, but I'm not proposing to change that
existing behavior in this patch.
Also, I'm skeptical that sbb/adc are a win for all micro-arches, so I added comments to the test files
where this transform still fires.
The test changes here are all cases where we no longer produce sbb/adc. Avoiding partial register
stalls (generating an xor to clear a register) is not handled in some cases, but that's a separate
issue.

xorl + setcc is generally the preferred sequence due to the partial register
stall setcc + movzbl suffers from. As a bonus, it also encodes one byte smaller.
This fixes PR28146.
The original commit tried inserting an 8bit-subreg into a GR32 (not GR32_ABCD)
which was not appreciated by fast regalloc on 32-bit.

Utilizing the 8 and 16 bit comparison instructions, even when an input can
be folded into the comparison instruction itself, is typically not worth it.
There are too many partial register stalls as a result, leading to significant
slowdowns. By always performing comparisons on at least 32-bit
registers, performance of the calculation chain leading to the
comparison improves. Continue to use the smaller comparisons when
minimizing size, as that allows better folding of loads into the
comparison instructions.

This was done with the following sed invocation to catch label lines demarking function boundaries:
sed -i '' "s/^;\( *\)\([A-Z0-9_]*\):\( *\)test\([A-Za-z0-9_-]*\):\( *\)$/;\1\2-LABEL:\3test\4:\5/g" test/CodeGen/*/*.ll
which was written conservatively to avoid false positives rather than false negatives. I scanned through all the changes and everything looks correct.

This shaves off 4 popcounts from the hacked 186.crafty source.
This is enabled even when a native popcount instruction is available. The
combined code is one operation longer but it should be faster nevertheless.
