This change includes the following: - Generate LXV/STXV sequences instead of LXVD2X/STXVD2X on power9. These instructions do not require an index register, which allows more loads and stores within a loop without initializing multiple index registers. The LoweredQuadXXX generate LXV/STXV. - Create LoweredMoveXXXShort and LoweredZeroXXXShort for short moves that don't generate loops, and therefore don't clobber the address registers or flags. - Use registers other than R3 and R4 to avoid conflicting with registers that have already been allocated to avoid unnecessary register moves. - Eliminate the use of R14 as scratch register and use R31 instead. - Add PCALIGN when the LoweredMoveXXX or LoweredZeroXXX generates a loop with more than 3 iterations. This performance opportunity was noticed in github.com/golang/snappy benchmarks.
