1. Setting command-line make variable NOASSERT=1 adds -DNDEBUG and builds in a separate directory.  By default, we still get Release+Asserts.

2. Add "(void)foo;" as necessary when foo is only used in an assert(), to remove warnings.

3. Minimize inclusion of llvm/Support/Timer.h because it adds warnings.

4. Call validateLiveness() only when asserts are enabled, because it's relatively expensive.
