Currently, the custom SGPR spill lowering pass spills
SGPRs into physical VGPR lanes and the remaining VGPRs
are used by regalloc for vector regclass allocation.
This imposes many restrictions that we ended up with
unsuccessful SGPR spilling when there won't be enough
VGPRs and we are forced to spill the leftover into
memory during PEI. The custom spill handling during PEI
has many edge cases and often breaks the compiler time
to time.
This patch implements spilling SGPRs into virtual VGPR
lanes. Since we now split the register allocation for
SGPRs and VGPRs, the virtual registers introduced for
the spill lanes would get allocated automatically in
the subsequent regalloc invocation for VGPRs.
Spill to virtual registers will always be successful,
even in the high-pressure situations, and hence it avoids
most of the edge cases during PEI. We are now left with
only the custom SGPR spills during PEI for special registers
like the frame pointer which isn an unproblematic case.
This patch also implements the whole wave spills which
might occur if RA spills any live range of virtual registers
involved in the whole wave operations. Earlier, we had
been hand-picking registers for such machine operands.
But now with SGPR spills into virtual VGPR lanes, we are
exposing them to the allocator.

Unlike the callee-saved VGPR spill instructions emitted by
`PEI::spillCalleeSavedRegs`, the CS VGPR spills inserted during
emitPrologue/emitEpilogue require the exec bits flipping to avoid
clobbering the inactive lanes of VGPRs used for SGPR spilling.
Currently, these spill instructions are referenced from the SP at
function entry and when the callee performs a stack realignment,
they ended up getting incorrect stack offsets. Even if we try to
adjust the offsets, the FP-SP becomes a runtime entity with dynamic
stack realignment and the offsets would still be inaccurate.
To fix it, use FP as the frame base in the spill instructions
whenever the function has FP. The offsets obtained for the CS
objects would always be the right values from FP.

In general, a callee is free to use a scratch register without
preserving its previous state. However, the VGPR used for SGPR
spilling can potentially have its inactive lanes overwritten by
the writelane instructions. When the function returns, it can
cause unexpected behavior if the VGPR value is not preserved
appropriately.
The current scheme to preserve the inactive lanes of such
scratch VGPRs is not done rightly. It preserves all lanes
and causes the outgoing values (if any) getting overwritten
by the epilog restores. It then corrupts the return value.
To avoid such situation with scratch VGPRs, this patch ensures
we preserve only their inactive lanes.

SILowerSGPRSpills pass handles the lowering of SGPR spills
into VGPR lanes. Some SGPR spills are handled later during
PEI. There is a common function used in both places to find
the free VGPR lane. This patch eliminates that dependency to
find the free VGPR by handling it separately for PEI. It is a
prerequisite patch for a future work to allow SGPR spills to
virtual VGPR lanes during SILowerSGPRSpills.
