[CodeGen][MachinePipeliner] Limit register pressure when scheduling (#74807)
In software pipelining, when searching for the Initiation Interval (II),
`MachinePipeliner` tries to reduce register pressure, but doesn't check
how many variables can actually be alive at the same time. As a result,
a lot of register spills/fills can be generated after register
allocation, which might cause performance degradation. To prevent such
cases, this patch adds a check phase that calculates the maximum
register pressure of the scheduled loop and reject it if the pressure is
too high. This can be enabled this by specifying
`pipeliner-register-pressure`. Additionally, an II search range is
currently fixed at 10, which is too small to find a schedule when the
above algorithm is applied. Therefore this patch also adds a new option
`pipeliner-ii-search-range` to specify the length of the range to
search. There is one more new option
`pipeliner-register-pressure-margin`, which can be used to estimate a
register pressure limit less than actual for conservative analysis.
