[PoisonChecking] Flesh out complete todo list for full coverage

Note: I don't actually plan to implement all of the cases at the moment, I'm just documenting them for completeness.  There's a couple of cases left which are practically useful for me in debugging loop transforms, and I'll probably stop there for the moment.

- Strict mode - (i.e. must analyze every operand)
- Poison through memory
- Function ABIs
Minor TODO items:
- Add propagation rules for and/or instructions
- Add hasPoisonFlags predicate to ValueTracking
- Add poison check rules for:
- exact flags, out of bounds operands
- inbounds (can't be strict due to unknown allocation sizes)
- fmf and fp casts
- Full coverage of intrinsics, etc.. (ouch)
Instructions w/Unclear Semantics:
- shufflevector - It would seem reasonable for an out of bounds mask element
to produce poison, but the LangRef does not state.
- and/or - It would seem reasonable for poison to propagate from both
arguments, but LangRef doesn't state and propagatesFullPoison doesn't
include these two.
- all binary ops w/vector operands - The likely interpretation would be that
any element overflowing should produce poison for the entire result, but
the LangRef does not state.
- Floating point binary ops w/fmf flags other than (nnan, noinfs). It seems
strange that only certian flags should be documented as producing poison.
Cases of clear poison semantics not yet implemented:
- Exact flags on ashr/lshr produce poison
- NSW/NUW flags on shl produce poison
- Inbounds flag on getelementptr produce poison
- fptosi/fptoui (out of bounds input) produce poison
- Scalable vector types for insertelement/extractelement
- Floating point binary ops w/fmf nnan/noinfs flags produce poison
