We want to run the Machine Scheduler instead of the List Scheduler after RA.
Checked with a performance run on a Power 9 machine with SPEC 2006 and while
some benchmarks improved and others degraded the geomean was slightly improved
with the Machine Scheduler.

This patch makes analyzeBranch eliminate unconditional branch to the next instruction.
After basic blocks are re-organized by optimizers, such as machine block placement, a BB may end with an unconditional branch to the next (fallthrough) BB. This patch removes such redundant branch instruction.

This instruction is just a control flow marker - it should not
actually exist in the object file. Unfortunately, nothing catches
it before it gets to AsmPrinter. If integrated assembler is used,
it's considered to be a normal 4-byte instruction, and emitted as
an all-0 word, crashing the program. With external assembler,
a comment is emitted.
Fixed by setting Size to 0 and handling it in MCCodeEmitter - this
means the comment will still be emitted if integrated assembler
is not used.
This broke an ASan test, which has been disabled for a long time
as a result (see the discussion on D19657). We can reenable it
once this lands.
