a72b2f88a8 [arm] Restrict grouping pushes before a TailCall to registers only
We optimize parallel moves performed before a TailCall by grouping adjacent
pushes. This way, we may use a single instruction to push multiple registers at
once. However, we also have support for pushing immediates and stack slots for
which the benefit is questionnable therefore this patch removes support for
them.

Concerning immediate pushes, it looks like a mistake since we do not have
support for this case in `AssembleMove` so this patch removes it. Furthermore,
if we add a test for this case, we see that a `push ip` instruction is
generated, effectively pushing whatever was in `ip` at the time instead of
pushing a constant.

Concerning stack slot pushes, we generate a more or less equivalent sequence of
instructions.

Finally, grouping floating point pushes is not used anywhere so this patch
removes support for this also.
