Fix a bug which prevented tail merging of return instructions in

beneficial cases. See the changes in test/CodeGen/X86/tail-opts.ll and
test/CodeGen/ARM/ifcvt2.ll for details.

The fix is to change HashEndOfMBB to hash at most one instruction,
instead of trying to apply heuristics about when it will be profitable to
consider more than one instruction. The regular tail-merging heuristics
are already prepared to handle the same cases, and they're more precise.

Also, make test/CodeGen/ARM/ifcvt5.ll and
test/CodeGen/Thumb2/thumb2-branch.ll slightly more complex so that they
continue to test what they're intended to test.

And, this eliminates the problem in
test/CodeGen/Thumb2/2009-10-15-ITBlockBranch.ll, the testcase from
PR5204. Update it accordingly.
