cmd/5g: fix regopt bug in copyprop
copyau1 was assuming that it could deduce the type of the middle register p->reg from the type of the left or right argument: in CMPF F1, F2, the p->reg==2 must be a D_FREG because p->from is F1, and in CMP R1, R2, the p->reg==2 must be a D_REG because p->from is R1. This heuristic fails for CMP $0, R2, which was causing copyau1 not to recognize p->reg==2 as a reference to R2, which was keeping it from properly renaming the register use when substituting registers. cmd/5c has the right approach: look at the opcode p->as to decide the kind of register. It is unclear where 5g's copyau1 came from; perhaps it was an attempt to avoid expanding 5c's a2type to include new instructions used only by 5g. Copy a2type from cmd/5c, expand to include additional instructions, and make it crash the compiler if asked about an instruction it does not understand (avoid silent bugs in the future if new instructions are added). Should fix current arm build breakage. While we're here, fix the print statements dumping the pred and succ info in the asm listing to pass an int arg to %.4ud (Prog.pc is a vlong now, due to the liblink merge).
