PATCH: More CSE memory reduction



This patch removes the N^2 memory usage in CSE, but doesn't fix the
N^2 time complexity, which seems considerably harder.  However, this
patch does significantly reduce the constant, and I can see how more
could be done as well.

Again, I'm working in a tree where a bzero call gets expanded to
several thousand sets in a single basic block -- that shouldn't
happen, but it's a good approximation to cases that really do happen.
Machine-generated, or even human-generated code, can certainly wind up
with several thousand instructions in a basic block.  Before last
nights CONST_INT sharing patch, we used 249MB of GC-able memory by the
end of CSE, and took 80s to compile gcc/tree.c.  With that patch,
those numbers were reduced to 192MB and 74s.  This patch trims the
numbers to 5MB and 54s.  I'll take a 98% memory reduction and 32%
speedup any day.

The basic issue was that alias.c's canon_rtx generates new RTL in some
cases.  But, it's always the same RTL, so it makes sense to cache the
value.

This file still takes 60MB to compile (with the overzealous bzero).
The only reason for that, now, is that the same issue exists in flow:
there are O(N^2) calls to canon_rtx.  I think I can play some similar
games there as well.

	* alias.c (canon_rtx): Make it global.
	(rtx_equal_for_memref_p): CONST_INT equality is now pointer
	equality.
	* cse.c (struct table_elt): Add canon_exp.
	(insert): Clear it.
	(invalidate): Canonicalize expressions only once.
	* rtl.h (canon_rtx): Declare.
