    cselib, var-tracking: Improve debug info after the cselib sp tracking
changes [PR94495]

    On the https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=94495#c5
    testcase GCC emits worse debug info after the PR92264 cselib.c
    changes.
    The difference at -O2 -g -dA in the assembly is (when ignoring debug info):
            # DEBUG g => [argp]
            # DEBUG k => [argp+0x20]
            # DEBUG j => [argp+0x18]
            # DEBUG a => di
            # DEBUG b => si
            # DEBUG c => dx
            # DEBUG d => cx
            # DEBUG h => [argp+0x8]
            # DEBUG e => r8
            # DEBUG i => [argp+0x10]
            # DEBUG f => r9
    ...
     .LVL4:
    +       # DEBUG h => [sp+0x10]
    +       # DEBUG i => [sp+0x18]
    +       # DEBUG j => [sp+0x20]
    +       # DEBUG k => [sp+0x28]
            # DEBUG c => entry_value
     # SUCC: EXIT [always]  count:1073741824 (estimated locally)
            ret
     .LVL5:
    +       # DEBUG k => [argp+0x20]
            # DEBUG a => bx
            # DEBUG b => si
            # DEBUG c => dx
            # DEBUG d => cx
            # DEBUG e => r8
            # DEBUG f => r9
    +       # DEBUG h => [argp+0x8]
    +       # DEBUG i => [argp+0x10]
    +       # DEBUG j => [argp+0x18]
    This means that before the changes, h, i, j, k could be all expressed
    in DW_AT_location directly with DW_OP_fbreg <some_offset>, but now we need
    to use a location list, where in the first part of the function and last
    part of the function (everything except the ret instruction) we use that
    DW_OP_fbreg <some_offset>, but for the single ret instruction we instead
    say those values live in something pointed by stack pointer + offset.
    It is true, but only because stack pointer + offset is equal to DW_OP_fbreg
    <some_offset> at that point.

    The var-tracking pass has for !frame_pointer_needed functions code to
    canonicalize stack pointer uses in the insns before it hands it over
    to cselib to cfa_base_rtx + offset depending on the stack depth at each
    point.  The problem is that on the last epilogue pop insn (the one right
    before ret) the canonicalization is sp = argp - 8 and add_stores records
    a MO_VAL_SET operation for that argp - 8 value (which is the
    SP_DERIVED_VALUE_P VALUE the cselib changes canonicalize sp based accesses
    on) and thus var-tracking from that point onwards tracks that that VALUE
    (2:2) now lives in sp.  At the end of function it of course needs to forget
    it again (or it would need on any changes to sp).  But when processing
    that uop, we note that the VALUE has changed and anything based on it
    changed too, so emit changes for everything.  Before that var-tracking
    itself doesn't track it in any register, so uses cselib and cselib knows
    through the permanent equivs how to compute it using argp (i.e. what
    will be DW_OP_fbreg).

    The following fix has two parts.  One is it detects if cselib can compute
    a certain VALUE using the cfa_base_rtx and for such VALUEs doesn't add
    the MO_VAL_SET operation, as it is better to express them using
cfa_base_rtx
    rather than temporarily through something else.  And the other is make sure
    we reuse in !frame_pointer_needed the single SP_DERIVED_VALUE_P VALUE in
    other extended basic blocks too (and other VALUEs) too.  This can be done
    because we have computed the stack depths at the start of each basic block
    in vt_stack_adjustments and while cselib_reset_table is called at the end
    of each extended bb, which throws away all hard registers (but the magic
    cfa_base_rtx) and so can hint cselib.c at the start of the ebb what VALUE
    the sp hard reg has.  That means fewer VALUEs during var-tracking and more
    importantly that they will all have the cfa_base_rtx + offset equivalency.

    I have performed 4 bootstraps+regtests (x86_64-linux and i686-linux,
    each with this patch (that is the new cselib + var-tracking variant) and
    once with that patch reverted as well as all other cselib.c changes from
    this month; once that bootstrapped, I've reapplied the cselib.c changes and
    this patch and rebuilt cc1plus, so that the content is comparable, but
built
    with the pre-Apr 2 cselib.c+var-tracking.c (that is the old cselib one)).

    Below are readelf -WS cc1plus | grep debug_ filtered to only have debug
    sections whose size actually changed, followed by dwlocstat results on
    cc1plus.  This shows that there was about 3% shrink in those .debug*
    sections for 32-bit and 1% shrink for 64-bit, with minor variable coverage
    changes one or the other way that are IMHO insignificant.
