The RegisterCoalescer understands overlapping live ranges where one
register is defined as a copy of the other. With this change, register
allocators using LiveRegMatrix can do the same, at least for copies
between physical and virtual registers.
When a physreg is defined by a copy from a virtreg, allow those live
ranges to overlap:
%CL<def> = COPY %vreg11:sub_8bit; GR32_ABCD:%vreg11
%vreg13<def,tied1> = SAR32rCL %vreg13<tied0>, %CL<imp-use,kill>
We can assign %vreg11 to %ECX, overlapping the live range of %CL.

There are some that I didn't remove this round because they looked like
obvious stubs. There are dead variables in gtest too, they should be
fixed upstream.

Now both SrcReg and DstReg can be sub-registers of the final coalesced
register.
CoalescerPair::setRegisters still rejects such copies because
RegisterCoalescer doesn't yet handle them.

These copies would coalesce easily, but the resulting value would be
defined by a deleted instruction. Now we also remove the undefined value
number from the destination register.
This fixes PR10503.
