Jeremy Morse 41206b61e3 [DebugInfo] Re-instate LiveDebugVariables scope trimming
This patch reverts part of r362750 / D62650, which stopped
LiveDebugVariables from trimming leading variable location ranges down
to only covering those instructions that are in scope. I've observed some
circumstances where the number of DBG_VALUEs in a function can be
amplified in an un-necessary way, to cover more instructions that are
out of scope, leading to very slow compile times. Trimming the range
of instructions that the variables cover solves the slow compile times.

The specific problem that r362750 tries to fix is addressed by the
assignment to RStart that I've added. Any variable location that begins
at the first instruction of a block will now be considered to begin at the
start of the block. While these sound the same, the have different
SlotIndexes, and the register allocator may shoehorn additional
instructions in between the two. The test added in the past
(wrong_debug_loc_after_regalloc.ll) still works with this modification.

live-debug-variables.ll has a range trimmed to not cover the prologue of
the function, while dbg-addr-dse.ll has a DBG_VALUE sink past one
instruction with no DebugLoc, which is expected behaviour.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
================================

This directory and its subdirectories contain source code for LLVM,
a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers,
optimizers, and runtime environments.

LLVM is open source software. You may freely distribute it under the terms of
the license agreement found in LICENSE.txt.

Please see the documentation provided in docs/ for further
assistance with LLVM, and in particular docs/GettingStarted.rst for getting
started with LLVM and docs/README.txt for an overview of LLVM's
documentation setup.

If you are writing a package for LLVM, see docs/Packaging.rst for our
suggestions.
