beam_bool: Correct live calculation for GC BIFs
When optimizing boolean expressions, it is not always possible
to find a number of live registers for a GC BIF that both preserves
all source registers that will be tested and at the same time
does not include registers that are not initialized.
As currently implemented, we have incomplete information about
the register calculated from the free variables. Some registers
are marked as "reserved". Reserved registers means that we don't
know anything about them; they may or may not be initialized.
As a conservative correction (suitable for a maintenance release), we
will abort the optimization if we find any reserved registers when
calculating the number of live registers. We will not attempt to
improve the information about the registers in this commit.
By examining the coverage when running the existing compiler test
suite we find that the optimization is aborted 15 times (before
adding any new test cases). To put that in perspective, the
optimization is successfully applied 4927 times, and aborted for
other reasons 547 times.
