Jack Andersen bd4dad87f4 [MachineInstr] Move MIParser's DBG_VALUE RegState::Debug invariant into MachineInstr::addOperand
Based on the reasoning of D53903, register operands of DBG_VALUE are
invariably treated as RegState::Debug operands. This change enforces
this invariant as part of MachineInstr::addOperand so that all passes
emit this flag consistently.

RegState::Debug is inconsistently set on DBG_VALUE registers throughout
LLVM. This runs the risk of a filtering iterator like
MachineRegisterInfo::reg_nodbg_iterator to process these operands
erroneously when not parsed from MIR sources.

This issue was observed in the development of the llvm-mos fork which
adds a backend that relies on physical register operands much more than
existing targets. Physical RegUnit 0 has the same numeric encoding as
$noreg (indicating an undef for DBG_VALUE). Allowing debug operands into
the machine scheduler correlates $noreg with RegUnit 0 (i.e. a collision
of register numbers with different zero semantics). Eventually, this
causes an assert where DBG_VALUE instructions are prohibited from
participating in live register ranges.
