[google/gcc-4_7] Backport r193747 to using working set for bb hotness (issue6907063)


This is a backport of r193747 to use the working set from the profile summary
to determine the bb hot count threshold.

Bootstrapped and tested on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu. Ok for google 4_7 branch?

Thanks,
Teresa

        * predict.c (maybe_hot_count_p): Use threshold from profiled working
        set instead of hard limit.
        (cgraph_maybe_hot_edge_p): Invoke maybe_hot_count_p() instead of
        directly checking limit.
        * params.def (HOT_BB_COUNT_FRACTION): Remove.
        (HOT_BB_COUNT_WS_PERMILLE): New parameter.
        * doc/invoke.texi (hot-bb-count-fraction): Remove.
        (hot-bb-count-ws-permille): Document.
