str     x13, [x12]
str     x14, [x12,#8]

can be combined into stp if the stores are happening in subsequent memory.

stp x13, x14, [x12]

I collected no. of such str pairs in framework libraries and found approx. 1000 pairs in 400 methods.

This change serves to address the following four Github tickets:

    1. ARM64: Optimize pair of "ldr reg, [fp]" to ldp dotnet#35130
    2. ARM64: Optimize pair of "ldr reg, [reg]" to ldp dotnet#35132
    3. ARM64: Optimize pair of "str reg, [reg]" to stp dotnet#35133
    4. ARM64: Optimize pair of "str reg, [fp]" to stp  dotnet#35134

A technique was employed that involved detecting an optimisation
opportunity as instruction sequences were being generated.
The optimised instruction was then generated on top of the previous
instruction, with no second instruction generated. Thus, there were no
changes to instruction group size at “emission time” and no changes to
jump instructions.

* Replace successive "ldr" and "str" instructions with "ldp" and "stp"

This change serves to address the following four Github tickets:

    1. ARM64: Optimize pair of "ldr reg, [fp]" to ldp #35130
    2. ARM64: Optimize pair of "ldr reg, [reg]" to ldp #35132
    3. ARM64: Optimize pair of "str reg, [reg]" to stp #35133
    4. ARM64: Optimize pair of "str reg, [fp]" to stp  #35134

A technique was employed that involved detecting an optimisation
opportunity as instruction sequences were being generated.
The optimised instruction was then generated on top of the previous
instruction, with no second instruction generated. Thus, there were no
changes to instruction group size at “emission time” and no changes to
jump instructions.

* No longer use a temporary buffer to build the optimized instruction.

* Addressed assorted review comments.

* Now optimizes ascending locations and decending locations with
consecutive STR and LDR instructions.

* Modification to remove last instructions.

* Ongoing improvements to remove previously-emitted instruction
during ldr / str optimization.

* Stopped optimization of consecutive instructions that straddled an instruction group boundary.

* Addressed code change requests in GitHub.

* Various fixes to ldp/stp optimization

Add code to update IP mappings when an instruction is removed.

* Delete unnecessary and incorrect assert

* Diagnostic change only, to confirm whether a theory is correct or
not when chasing an error.

* Revert "Diagnostic change only, to confirm whether a theory is correct or"

This reverts commit 4b0e51e.

* Do not merge. Temporarily removed calls to
"codeGen->genIPmappingUpdateForRemovedInstruction()".

Also, corrected minor bug in instruction numbering
when removing instructions during optimization.

* Modifications to better update the IP mapping table for a replaced instruction.

* Minor formatting change.

* Check for out of range offsets

* Don't optimise during prolog/epilog

* Fix windows build error

* IGF_HAS_REMOVED_INSTR is ARM64 only

* Add OptimizeLdrStr function

* Fix formatting

* Ensure local variables are tracked

* Don't peephole local variables
