Track new virtual registers by register number, rather than by the live
interval created for them. This is the first step in separating the
creation of new virtual registers and new live intervals. Eventually
live intervals will be created and populated on demand after the virtual
registers have been created and used in instructions.

RegisterCoalescer used to depend on LiveDebugVariable. LDV removes DBG_VALUEs
without emitting them at the end.
We fix this by removing LDV from RegisterCoalescer. Also add an assertion to
make sure we call emitDebugValues if DBG_VALUEs are removed at
runOnMachineFunction.

After a virtual register is split, update any debug user variables that resided
in the old register. This ensures that the LiveDebugVariables are still correct
after register allocation.
This may create DBG_VALUE instructions that place a user variable in a register
in parts of the function and in a stack slot in other parts. DwarfDebug
currently doesn't support that.

Scan the MachineFunction for DBG_VALUE instructions, and replace them with a
data structure similar to LiveIntervals. The live range of a DBG_VALUE is
determined by propagating it down the dominator tree until a new DBG_VALUE is
found. When a DBG_VALUE lives in a register, its live range is confined to the
live range of the register's value.
LiveDebugVariables runs before coalescing, so DBG_VALUEs are not artificially
extended when registers are joined.
The missing half will recreate DBG_VALUE instructions from the intervals when
register allocation is complete.
The pass is disabled by default. It can be enabled with the temporary command
line option -live-debug-variables.

This analysis is going to run immediately after LiveIntervals. It will stay
alive during register allocation and keep track of user variables mentioned in
DBG_VALUE instructions.
When the register allocator is moving values between registers and the stack, it
is very hard to keep track of DBG_VALUE instructions. We usually get it wrong.
This analysis maintains a data structure that makes it easy to update DBG_VALUE
instructions.
