sparc64: Improve 64-bit constant loading in eBPF JIT.
Doing a full 64-bit decomposition is really stupid especially for simple values like 0 and -1. But if we are going to optimize this, go all the way and try for all 2 and 3 instruction sequences not requiring a temporary register as well. First we do the easy cases where it's a zero or sign extended 32-bit number (sethi+or, sethi+xor, respectively). Then we try to find a range of set bits we can load simply then shift up into place, in various ways. Then we try negating the constant and see if we can do a simple sequence using that with a xor at the end. (f.e. the range of set bits can't be loaded simply, but for the negated value it can) The final optimized strategy involves 4 instructions sequences not needing a temporary register. Otherwise we sadly fully decompose using a temp.. Example, from ALU64_XOR_K: 0x0000ffffffff0000 ^ 0x0 = 0x0000ffffffff0000: 0000000000000000 <foo>: 0: 9d e3 bf 50 save %sp, -176, %sp 4: 01 00 00 00 ...
