This changes the SelectionDAG scheduling preference to source
order. Soon, the SelectionDAG scheduler can be bypassed saving
a nice chunk of compile time.
Performance differences that result from this change are often a
consequence of register coalescing. The register coalescer is far from
perfect. Bugs can be filed for deficiencies.
On x86 SandyBridge/Haswell, the source order schedule is often
preserved, particularly for small blocks.
Register pressure is generally improved over the SD scheduler's ILP
mode. However, we are still able to handle large blocks that require
latency hiding, unlike the SD scheduler's BURR mode. MI scheduler also
attempts to discover the critical path in single-block loops and
adjust heuristics accordingly.
The MI scheduler relies on the new machine model. This is currently
unimplemented for AVX, so we may not be generating the best code yet.
Unit tests are updated so they don't depend on SD scheduling heuristics.

This option has been disabled for a while, and it is going away so I can
clean up the coalescer code.
The tests that required physreg joining to be enabled were almost all of
the form "tiny function with interference between arguments and return
value". Such functions are usually inlined in the real world.
The problem exposed by phys_subreg_coalesce-3.ll is real, but fairly
rare.

%reg1028<def> = EXTRACT_SUBREG %reg1027<kill>, 1
%reg1029<def> = MOV8rr %reg1028
%reg1029<def> = SHR8ri %reg1029, 7, %EFLAGS<imp-def,dead>
insert => %reg1030<def> = MOV8rr %reg1028
%reg1030<def> = ADD8rr %reg1028<kill>, %reg1029<kill>, %EFLAGS<imp-def,dead>
In this case, it might not be possible to coalesce the second MOV8rr
instruction if the first one is coalesced. So it would be profitable to
commute it:
%reg1028<def> = EXTRACT_SUBREG %reg1027<kill>, 1
%reg1029<def> = MOV8rr %reg1028
%reg1029<def> = SHR8ri %reg1029, 7, %EFLAGS<imp-def,dead>
insert => %reg1030<def> = MOV8rr %reg1029
%reg1030<def> = ADD8rr %reg1029<kill>, %reg1028<kill>, %EFLAGS<imp-def,dead>

sometimes a "mov %ebp, %esp" in the epilogue.
Force these tests that rely on counting 'mov' to use i686-apple-darwin8.8.0
where they were written.
