-Complete the signed i32 to FP conversion code using 64-bit registers

-     // FIXME: disable this lowered code.  This generates 64-bit register values,
-     // and we don't model the fact that the top part is clobbered by calls.  We
-     // need to flag these together so that the value isn't live across a call.

-Also, if the registers are spilled to the stack, we have to ensure that all
-64-bits of them are save/restored, otherwise we will miscompile the code.  It
-sounds like we need to get the 64-bit register classes going.
