Josh Bleecher Snyder 943a0d02d1 cmd/compile: add Value.Uses comparison during scheduling
Falling back to comparing Value.ID during scheduling
is undesirable: Not only are we simply hoping for a good
outcome, but the decision we make will be easily perturbed
by other compiler changes, leading to random fluctuations.

This change adds another decision point to the scheduler
by scheduling Values with many uses earlier.
Values with fewer uses are less likely to be spilled for
other reasons, so we should issue them as late as possible
in the hope of avoiding a spill.

This reduces the number of Value ID comparisons
in schedule while running make.bash
from 1,000,844 to 542,442.

As you would expect, this changes a lot of functions,
but the overall trend is positive:
