An SSA value is usually biased towards a specific register class or a
stack slot, depending on the constraints of the instructions using it.
Represent this bias as an Affinity enum, and implement a merging
algorithm for updating an affinity to satisfy a new constraint.
Affinities will be computed as part of the liveness analysis. This is
not implemented yet.
Ensure that the set of register classes is closed under intersection.
Provide a RegClass::intersect() method which finds the register class
representing the intersection of two classes.
Generate a bit-mask of subclasses for each register class to be used by
the intersect() method.
Ensure that register classes are sorted topologically. This is also used
by the intersect() method.
This set of available register units also manages register aliasing in
an efficient way.
Detect if the units in a register straddles mask words. The algorithm
for allocating multi-unit registers expect the whole register to be
inside a single mask word. We could handle this if necessary, but so far
no ISAs need it.
