Matthias Braun 588d1cdad4 X86: Use a callee save register for the swiftself parameter. ...

It is very likely that the swiftself parameter is alive throughout most
functions function so putting it into a callee save register should
avoid spills for the callers with only a minimum amount of extra spills
in the callees.

Currently the generated code is correct but unnecessarily spills and
reloads arguments passed in callee save registers, I will address this
in upcoming patches.

This also adds a missing check that for tail calls the preserved value
of the caller must be the same as the callees parameter.
