Record equivalences for spill registers

If we decide to allocate a call-clobbered register R to a value that
is live across a call, LRA will create a new spill register TMPR,
insert:

   TMPR <- R

before the call and

   R <- TMPR

after it.  But if we then failed to allocate a register to TMPR, we would
always spill it to the stack, even if R was known to be equivalent to
a constant or to some existing memory location.  And on AArch64, we'd
always fail to allocate such a register for 128-bit Advanced SIMD modes,
since no registers of those modes are call-preserved.

This patch avoids the problem by copying the equivalence information
from the original pseudo to the spill register.  It means that the
code for the testcase is as good with -O2 as it is with -O,
whereas previously the -O code was better.
