Description:
Revert of [turbofan] Greedy: using hints (patchset #2 id:60001 of
https://codereview.chromium.org/1329493004/ )

Reason for revert:

Original issue's description:
[turbofan] Greedy: using hints

This is a rudimentary introduction of hints. Primarily this helps with
allocating on the same register variables are defined (from instructions)
For dealing with phis, we need to introduce groups, in a subsequent
CL.

 From the last CL (memory ops heuristics), this CL improves some
benchmarks - notably Life (11.94%) in Emscripten x64, and Memops
(Emscripten), 24% on x86; notable regressions: Memops in
AreWeFastYet (-14%, x64) and Corrections -25% on x86.
