The machine scheduler currently biases register copies to/from
physical registers to be closer to their point of use / def to
minimize their live ranges. This change extends this to also physical
register assignments from immediate values.
This causes a reduction in reduction in overall register pressure and
minor reduction in spills and indirectly fixes an out-of-registers
assertion (PR39391).
Most test changes are from minor instruction reorderings and register
name selection changes and direct consequences of that.

Instead of using the MOVGOT64r pseudo, use the existing
MO_PIC_BASE_OFFSET support on symbol operands. Now I don't have to
create a "scratch register operand" for the pseudo to use, and the
register allocator can make better decisions.
Fixes some X86 verifier errors tracked in PR27481.
