The register used in emitPrologue/emitEpilogue to spill and reload the condition register is hard coded as R12. This isn't a problem in general, however when we shrink-wrap the function, the prologue/epilogue will end up in a block that may be using R12. In a case like that, we will clobber a value that is potentially needed.

This patch provides the support for acquiring an unused register for spilling the CR. In cases where there isn't an extra available register, the LR and CR will be spilled/reloaded using the same temporary register.

In the cases where we are not shrinkwrapping (i.e. the prologue/epilogue are staying put), we will not look for an available register since R12 is available.
