[PATCH] Avoid creating unbounded complexity debug insns in valtrack (PR debug/77844)

Hi!

On the following testcase (where I've failed to reduce it without the
header, got to over 70KB with both delta and creduce) we end up with huge
RTL expressions in debug insns that just slow down combiner as well as
var-tracking etc. too much.
Generally, at GIMPLE level we try to keep the debug stmts using debug
temporaries very simple, then during expansion we have a function that uses
debug temporaries in case TER creates larger expressions, and finally during
var-tracking we also punt on too large expressions.  But valtrack APIs,
used e.g. by the combiner, when substituting lots of pseudos for expressions
that e.g. contain each two other pseudos, is able to create many KB sized
expressions.

The following patch just throws away expressions that have 32 register
references in there, I think that is so huge that it will be really very
unlikely to be beneficial in the debug info and var-tracking would likely
throw it away anyway.  Or shall I use some --param instead of the constant
(any suggestions on how to call it)?  Another option (with or without param)
is to create debug temporaries in those cases and split the expression into
smaller expressions.  Not sure if it is worth it though.

Bootstrapped/regtested on x86_64-linux and i686-linux.
