This takes sequences like "mov r4, sp; str r0, [r4]", and optimizes them
to something like "str r0, [sp]".
For regular stack variables, this optimization was already implemented:
we lower loads and stores using frame indexes, which are expanded later.
However, when constructing a call frame for a call with more than four
arguments, the existing optimization doesn't apply. We need to use
stores which are actually relative to the current value of sp, and don't
have an associated frame index.
This patch adds a special case to handle that construct. At the DAG
level, this is an ISD::STORE where the address is a CopyFromReg from SP
(plus a small constant offset).
This applies only to Thumb1: in Thumb2 or ARM mode, a regular store
instruction can access SP directly, so the COPY gets eliminated by
existing code.
The change to ARMDAGToDAGISel::SelectThumbAddrModeSP is a related
cleanup: we shouldn't pretend that it can select anything other than
frame indexes.

In Thumb 1, with the new ADDCARRY / SUBCARRY the scheduler may need to do
copies CPSR ↔ GPR but not all Thumb1 targets implement them.
The schedule can attempt, before attempting a copy, to clone the instructions
but it does not currently do that for nodes with input glue. In this patch we
introduce a target-hook to let the hook decide if a glued machinenode is still
eligible for copying. In this case these are ARM::tADCS and ARM::tSBCS .
As a follow-up of this change we should actually implement the copies for the
Thumb1 targets that do implement them and restrict the hook to the targets that
can't really do such copy as these clones are not ideal.
This change fixes PR35836.
