In preparation for adding support for named vregs we are changing the sigil for
physical registers in MIR to '$' from '%'. This will prevent name clashes of
named physical register with named vregs.

* The method getRegAllocationHints() is now of bool type instead of void. If
true is returned, regalloc (AllocationOrder) will *only* try to allocate the
hints, as opposed to merely trying them before non-hinted registers.
* TargetRegisterInfo::getRegAllocationHints() is implemented for SystemZ with
an increase in number of LOCRs.
In this case, it is desired to force the hints even though there is a slight
increase in spilling, because if a non-hinted register would be allocated,
the LOCRMux pseudo would have to be expanded with a jump sequence. The LOCR
(Load On Condition) SystemZ instruction must have both operands in either the
low or high part of the 64 bit register.
