of instcombine that is currently in the middle of the loop pass pipeline. This
commit only checks in the pass; it will hopefully be enabled by default later.

it could only be tested indirectly, via instcombine, gvn or some other
pass that makes use of InstructionSimplify, which means that testcases
had to be carefully contrived to dance around any other transformations
that that pass did.

add a version of createLowerInvokePass that allows the client
to specify whether it wants "expensive" or "cheap" lowering.
Patch by Alex Mac!

Initial skeleton and SCEVUnknown lowering implemented,
the rest should come relatively quickly. Move testcase
to new directory.
Move pass to right before SimplifyLibCalls - which is
moved down a bit so we can take advantage of a few opts.

Checks on Demand algorithm which looks at arbitrary branches instead of loop
iterations. This is GSoC work by Andre Tavares with only editorial changes
applied!

GEPs (more than one non-zero index) into simple GEPs (at most one
non-zero index). In some simple experiments using this it's not
uncommon to see 3% overall code size wins, because it exposes
redundancies that can be eliminated, however it's tricky to use
because instcombine aggressively undoes the work that this pass does.

constants out of loops. These aren't covered by the regular LICM
pass, because in LLVM IR constants don't require separate
instructions. They're not always covered by the MachineLICM pass
either, because it doesn't know how to unfold folded constant-pool
loads. This is somewhat experimental at this point, and off by
default.

LoopPass*.
- Although less precise, this means they can be used in clients
without RTTI (who would otherwise need to include LoopPass.h, which
eventually includes things using dynamic_cast). This was the
simplest solution that presented itself, but I am happy to use a
better one if available.

Unfortunately this means removing one regression test
of GlobalsModRef because I couldn't work out how to
perform it without MarkModRef.

attributes on functions, based on the result of
alias analysis. It's not hardwired to use
GlobalsModRef even though this is the only (AFAIK)
alias analysis that results in this pass actually
doing something. Enable as follows:
opt ... -globalsmodref-aa -markmodref ...
Advantages of this pass: (1) records the result
of globalsmodref in the bitcode, meaning it is
available for use by later passes (currently
the pass manager isn't smart enough to magically
make an advanced alias analysis available to all
later passes), which may expose more optimization
opportunities; (2) hopefully speeds up compilation
when code is optimized twice, for example when a
file is compiled to bitcode, then later LTO is done
on it: marking functions readonly/readnone when
producing the initial bitcode should speed up alias
analysis during LTO; (3) good for discovering that
globalsmodref doesn't work very well :)
Not currently turned on by default.
