The current implementation of skip insertion (SIInsertSkip) makes it a
mandatory pass required for correctness. Initially, the idea was to
have an optional pass. This patch inserts the s_cbranch_execz upfront
during SILowerControlFlow to skip over the sections of code when no
lanes are active. Later, SIRemoveShortExecBranches removes the skips
for short branches, unless there is a sideeffect and the skip branch is
really necessary.
This new pass will replace the handling of skip insertion in the
existing SIInsertSkip Pass.

Current findBestLoopTop can find and move one kind of block to top, a latch block has one successor. Another common case is:
* a latch block
* it has two successors, one is loop header, another is exit
* it has more than one predecessors
If it is below one of its predecessors P, only P can fall through to it, all other predecessors need a jump to it, and another conditional jump to loop header. If it is moved before loop header, all its predecessors jump to it, then fall through to loop header. So all its predecessors except P can reduce one taken branch.

Codegen prepare sinks comparisons close to a user is we have only one register
for conditions. For AMDGPU we have many SGPRs capable to hold vector conditions.
Changed BE to report we have many condition registers. That way IR LICM pass
would hoist an invariant comparison out of a loop and codegen prepare will not
sink it.
With that done a condition is calculated in one block and used in another.
Current behavior is to store workitem's condition in a VGPR using v_cndmask_b32
and then restore it with yet another v_cmp instruction from that v_cndmask's
result. To mitigate the issue a propagation of source SGPR pair in place of v_cmp
is implemented. Additional side effect of this is that we may consume less VGPRs
at a cost of more SGPRs in case if holding of multiple conditions is needed, and
that is a clear win in most cases.
