cmd/compile: Use Sreedhar+Gao phi building algorithm
Should be more asymptotically happy. We process each variable in turn to find all the locations where it needs a phi (the dominance frontier of all of its definitions). Then we add all those phis. This takes O(n * #variables), although hopefully much less. Then we do a single tree walk to match all the FwdRefs with the nearest definition or phi. This takes O(n) time. The one remaining inefficiency is that we might end up introducing a bunch of dead phis in the first step. A TODO is to introduce phis only where they might be used by a read. The old algorithm is still faster on small functions, so there's a cutover size (currently 500 blocks). This algorithm supercedes the David's sparse phi placement algorithm for large functions. Lowers compile time of example from #14934 from ~10 sec to ~4 sec. Lowers compile time of example from #16361 from ~4.5 sec to ~3 sec. Lowers #16407 from ~20 min to ~30 sec.
