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.

When selecting a split candidate for region splitting, the register allocator tries to predict which candidate will have the cheapest spill cost.
Global splitting may cause the creation of local intervals, and they might spill.
This patch makes RA take into account the spill cost of local split intervals in use blocks (we already take into account the spill cost in through blocks).
A flag ("-condsider-local-interval-cost") controls weather we do this advanced cost calculation (it's on by default for X86 target, off for the rest).
