Would it be better to have a hash table per value?  A whole hash table
sounds like a lot of overhead but it may be less than a tiny allocation
(plus a ralloc header!) for every (block, value) pair.  I guess it depends
on the number of defs we expect to be registered per-value.

Running some on-the-fly numbers... A ralloc header is 6 pointers so a
ralloc'd phi_builder_key is 8 pointers worth of data and a ralloc'd
hash_table struct is 15 pointers worth.  Throwing in the actual hash table
with 7 entries and you have a header and two pointers per entry so that's
another 20 pointers for a total of 35.  That's the same as four
phi_builder_keys (without including malloc's own overhead).  So if you have
at least four blocks involved (there have to be at least 3 or there is no
phi), it's break-even and if there are more involved, one table per value
is a win.

We could also consider doing some optimizations for the case where the
value is defined in only one block but that gets tricky as everything has
an implicit undef at the top so that's probably best left for another time
unless it's a super-common case in the fp64 code.
