By using the live variables code for determining interference, we can
handle coalescing in the presence of control flow, which the other
register coalescing path couldn't.

Total instructions: 207184 -> 206990
74/1246 programs affected (5.9%)
33993 -> 33799 instructions in affected programs (0.6% reduction)

There is a newerth shader that loses out, because of some extra MOVs
that now get their dead-code nature obscured by coalescing.  This
should be fixed by doing better at dead code elimination.
