Alex Bradbury ca6e748e11 [Sparc][NFC] Clean up SelectCC lowering
The ARM, BPF, MSP430, Sparc and Mips backends all use a similar code sequence 
for lowering SelectCC. As pointed out by @reames in D29937, this code isn't 
particularly clear and in most of these backends doesn't actually match the 
comments. This patch makes the code sequence clearer for the Sparc backend 
through better variable naming and more accurate comments (e.g. we are 
inserting triangle control flow, _not_ diamond). There is no functional 
change.

To-do
-----

* Keep the address of the constant pool in a register instead of forming its
  address all of the time.
* We can fold small constant offsets into the %hi/%lo references to constant
  pool addresses as well.
* When in V9 mode, register allocate %icc[0-3].
* Add support for isel'ing UMUL_LOHI instead of marking it as Expand.
* Emit the 'Branch on Integer Register with Prediction' instructions.  It's
  not clear how to write a pattern for this though:

float %t1(int %a, int* %p) {
        %C = seteq int %a, 0
        br bool %C, label %T, label %F
T:
        store int 123, int* %p
        br label %F
F:
        ret float undef
}

codegens to this:

t1:
        save -96, %o6, %o6
1)      subcc %i0, 0, %l0
1)      bne .LBBt1_2    ! F
        nop
.LBBt1_1:       ! T
        or %g0, 123, %l0
        st %l0, [%i1]
.LBBt1_2:       ! F
        restore %g0, %g0, %g0
        retl
        nop

1) should be replaced with a brz in V9 mode.

* Same as above, but emit conditional move on register zero (p192) in V9
  mode.  Testcase:

int %t1(int %a, int %b) {
        %C = seteq int %a, 0
        %D = select bool %C, int %a, int %b
        ret int %D
}

* Emit MULX/[SU]DIVX instructions in V9 mode instead of fiddling
  with the Y register, if they are faster.

* Codegen bswap(load)/store(bswap) -> load/store ASI

* Implement frame pointer elimination, e.g. eliminate save/restore for
  leaf fns.
* Fill delay slots

* Use %g0 directly to materialize 0. No instruction is required.
