AMDGPU: Remove SIFixSGPRLiveRanges pass

Summary:
This pass is unnecessary and overly conservative. It was motivated by
situations like

  def %vreg0:SGPR_32
  ...
if-block:
  ..
  def %vreg1:SGPR_32
  ...
else-block:
  ...
  use %vreg0:SGPR_32
  ...

and similar situations with uses after the non-uniform control flow, where
we are not allowed to assign %vreg0 and %vreg1 to the same physical register,
even though in the original, thread/workitem-based CFG, it looks like the
live ranges of these registers do not overlap.

However, by the time register allocation runs, we have moved to a wave-based
CFG that accurately represents the fact that the wave may run through both
the if- and the else-block. So the live ranges of %vreg0 and %vreg1 already
overlap even without the SIFixSGPRLiveRanges pass.

In addition to proving this change correct, I have tested it with Piglit
and a small number of other tests.
