RFR(M) 8011621: Keep the "live range id - node" mapping in a separate class

[Vladimir Kozlov]

Niclas,

Thank you for doing this cleanup.

Please, test affection on RA performance. You can use CTW for this and 
fastdebug VM:

${JAVA_HOME}/bin/java -server -Xss4m -verify -XX:+CompileTheWorld 
-XX:+TimeCompiler -Xbootclasspath/p:${JAVA_HOME}/jre/lib/rt.jar

Or build optimized VM and run jvm08, for example, with -XX:+TimeCompiler.

Can you use full name LiveRangeMap instead of LRGMap?
Don't put big methods with loops into header file, we don't want to 
increase code size without need.

Explicitly declare private: and public: parts in class. Add comment what 
is class for.

I like Roland's suggestion (LRGMap _lrg_map;) because it avoids a 
reference through _lrg_map pointer (in compiled code C++ needs only one 
PhaseChaitin* pointer).

Thanks,
Vladimir

Right now it would need to have a reference to PhaseChaitin, only to access the "live range id - node" mapping. However, it does not need to know about everything in the PhaseChaitin class. This may also introduce cross reference problems since PhaseChaitin would use the Split module and the Split module would need a reference to PhaseChaitin.
