When choosing the best successor for a block, ordinarily we would have preferred
a block that preserves the CFG unless there is a strong probability the other
direction. For small blocks that can be duplicated we now skip that requirement
as well, subject to some simple frequency calculations.

This reverts commit ada6595a526d71df04988eb0a4b4fe84df398ded.
This needs a simple probability check because there are some cases where it is
not profitable.

DMB instructions can be expensive, so it's best to avoid them if possible. In
atomicrmw operations there will always be an attempted store so a release
barrier is always needed, but in the cmpxchg case we can delay the DMB until we
know we'll definitely try to perform a store (and so need release semantics).
In the strong cmpxchg case this isn't quite free: we must duplicate the LDREX
instructions to skip the barrier on subsequent iterations. The basic outline
becomes:
ldrex rOld, [rAddr]
cmp rOld, rDesired
bne Ldone
dmb
Lloop:
strex rRes, rNew, [rAddr]
cbz rRes Ldone
ldrex rOld, [rAddr]
cmp rOld, rDesired
beq Lloop
Ldone:
So we'll skip this version for strong operations in "minsize" functions.

ARM counterpart to r248291:
In the comparison failure block of a cmpxchg expansion, the initial
ldrex/ldxr will not be followed by a matching strex/stxr.
On ARM/AArch64, this unnecessarily ties up the execution monitor,
which might have a negative performance impact on some uarchs.
Instead, release the monitor in the failure block.
The clrex instruction was designed for this: use it.
Also see ARMARM v8-A B2.10.2:
"Exclusive access instructions and Shareable memory locations".

This also simplifies the IR we create slightly: instead of working out
where success & failure should go manually, it turns out we can just
always jump to a success/failure block created for the purpose. Later
phases will sort out the mess without much difficulty.
