[PATCH] improve arm machine code (make -verify-machineinstrs happier)

I added testcases and resend in separate emails this minute. Here’s also a revised version of the optimizeSelect with a more verbose description:

ARM: optimizeSelect has to consider the previous register
 class

optimizeSelect folds (predicated) copy instructions, it must not ignore
the original register class of the operand when replacing the register
with the copies dest register.

Greetings

Still, the addOperand() patch seems straight-forward, and the tail call patch looks correct, though it'd be good to see it in action on a test. But it's not easy to spot what the optimizeSelect patch is trying to fix.
