This new argument will aid register allocation by indicating how
the temporary will be used in future. If the preference cannot
be satisfied, fall back to the constraints of the current insn.
Short circuit the preference when it cannot be satisfied or if
it does not further constrain the operation.
With an eye toward optimizing function call sequences, optimize
for the preferred_reg set containing a single register.
For the moment, all users pass 0 for preference.

This will move the assert for success from within (subroutines of)
patch_reloc into the callers. It will also let new code do something
different when a relocation is out of range.
For the moment, all backends are trivially converted to return true.

In 6001f7729e12 we partially attempt to address the branch
displacement overflow caused by 15fa08f845.
However, gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/aarch64/advsimd-intrinsics/vqtbX.c
is a testcase that contains a TB so large as to overflow anyway.
The limit here of 8000 ops produces a maximum output TB size of
24112 bytes on a ppc64le host with that test case. This is still
much less than the maximum forward branch distance of 32764 bytes.
Backports commit abebf92597186be2bc48d487235da28b1127860f from qemu
ppc64 uses a BC instruction to call the tcg_out_qemu_ld/st
slow path. BC instruction uses a relative address encoded
on 14 bits.
The slow path functions are added at the end of the generated
instructions buffer, in the reverse order of the callers.
So more we have slow path functions more the distance between
the caller (BC) and the function increases.
This patch changes the behavior to generate the functions in
the same order of the callers.

With no fixed array allocation, we can't overflow a buffer.
This will be important as optimizations related to host vectors

Rather than have separate code only used for guest_base,

Both ARMv6 and AArch64 currently may drop complex guest_base values
into the constant pool. But generic code wasn't expecting that, and
the pool is not emitted. Correct that.

Using the offset of a temporary, relative to TCGContext, rather than
its index means that we don't use 0. That leaves offset 0 free for
a NULL representation without having to leave index 0 unused.

The GET and MAKE functions weren't really specific enough.
We now have a full complement of functions that convert exactly
between temporaries, arguments, tcgv pointers, and indices.
The target/sparc change is also a bug fix, which would have affected
a host that defines TCG_TARGET_HAS_extr[lh]_i64_i32, i.e. MIPS64.

A new shared header tcg-pool.inc.c adds new_pool_label,

the generated code, plus relocation data to install a

A new pointer is added to the TCGContext, so that we
dump the constant pool as data, not code.

Backports commit 659ef5cbb893872d25e9d95191cc23b16546c8a1 from qemu
Allocating an arbitrarily-sized array of tbs results in either
(a) a lot of memory wasted or (b) unnecessary flushes of the code
cache when we run out of TB structs in the array.
An obvious solution would be to just malloc a TB struct when needed,
and keep the TB array as an array of pointers (recall that tb_find_pc()
needs the TB array to run in O(log n)).
Perhaps a better solution, which is implemented in this patch, is to
allocate TB's right before the translated code they describe. This
results in some memory waste due to padding to have code and TBs in
separate cache lines--for instance, I measured 4.7% of padding in the
used portion of code_gen_buffer when booting aarch64 Linux on a
host with 64-byte cache lines. However, it can allow for optimizations
in some host architectures, since TCG backends could safely assume that
the TB and the corresponding translated code are very close to each
other in memory. See this message by rth for a detailed explanation:

Backports commit 6e3b2bfd6af488a896f7936e99ef160f8f37e6f2 from qemu
Instead of exporting goto_ptr directly to TCG frontends, export
tcg_gen_lookup_and_goto_ptr(), which calls goto_ptr with the pointer
returned by the lookup_tb_ptr() helper. This is the only use case
we have for goto_ptr and lookup_tb_ptr, so having this function is
very convenient. Furthermore, it trivially allows us to avoid calling
the lookup helper if goto_ptr is not implemented by the backend.

This will let us choose how to interpret a given constraint

let us share more constraint combinations between opcodes.
At the same time, change the interface to return the advanced
