Davide Italiano 36acbc716d [LiveVariables] Switch Kill/Defs sets to be DenseSet(s). ...

The testcase in PR32984 shows a non linear compile time increase
after a change that made the LoopUnroll pass more aggressive
(increasing the threshold).

My profiling shows all the time of PHI elimination goes to
llvm::LiveVariables::addNewBlock. This is because we keep
Defs/Kills registers in a SmallSet and vfind(const T &V); is O(N).

Switching to a DenseSet reduces the time spent in the pass from
297 seconds to 97 seconds. Profiling still shows a lot of time is
spent iterating the data structure, so I guess there's room for
improvement.

Dan tells me GCC uses real set operations for live registers and
it takes no-time on this testcase. Matthias points out we might
want to switch all this to LiveIntervalAnalysis so it's not entirely
sure if a rewrite is worth it.
