This patch implements Chandler's idea [0] for supporting languages that
require support for infinite loops with side effects, such as Rust, providing
part of a solution to bug 965 [1].
Specifically, it adds an `llvm.sideeffect()` intrinsic, which has no actual
effect, but which appears to optimization passes to have obscure side effects,
such that they don't optimize away loops containing it. It also teaches
several optimization passes to ignore this intrinsic, so that it doesn't
significantly impact optimization in most cases.
As discussed on llvm-dev [2], this patch is the first of two major parts.
The second part, to change LLVM's semantics to have defined behavior
on infinite loops by default, with a function attribute for opting into
potential-undefined-behavior, will be implemented and posted for review in
a separate patch.

Summary:
We no longer add vectors of pointers as candidates for
load/store vectorization. It does not seem to work anyway,
but without this patch we can end up in asserts when trying
to create casts between an integer type and the pointer of
vectors type.
The test case I've added used to assert like this when trying to
cast between i64 and <2 x i16*>:
opt: ../lib/IR/Instructions.cpp:2565: Assertion `castIsValid(op, S, Ty) && "Invalid cast!"' failed.

Summary:
The code comments indicate that no effort has been spent on
handling load/stores when the size isn't a multiple of the
byte size correctly. However, the code only avoided types
smaller than 8 bits. So for example a load of an i28 could
still be considered as a candidate for vectorization.
This patch adjusts the code to behave according to the code
comment.
The test case used to hit the following assert when
trying to use "cast" an i32 to i28 using CreateBitOrPointerCast:
opt: ../lib/IR/Instructions.cpp:2565: Assertion `castIsValid(op, S, Ty) && "Invalid cast!"' failed.

This patch adds min/max population count, leading/trailing zero/one bit counting methods.
The min methods return answers based on bits that are known without considering unknown bits. The max methods give answers taking into account the largest count that unknown bits could give.

This patch introduces a new KnownBits struct that wraps the two APInt used by computeKnownBits. This allows us to treat them as more of a unit.
Initially I've just altered the signatures of computeKnownBits and InstCombine's simplifyDemandedBits to pass a KnownBits reference instead of two separate APInt references. I'll do similar to the SelectionDAG version of computeKnownBits/simplifyDemandedBits as a separate patch.
I've added a constructor that allows initializing both APInts to the same bit width with a starting value of 0. This reduces the repeated pattern of initializing both APInts. Once place default constructed the APInts so I added a default constructor for those cases.
Going forward I would like to add more methods that will work on the pairs. For example trunc, zext, and sext occur on both APInts together in several places. We should probably add a clear method that can be used to clear both pieces. Maybe a method to check for conflicting information. A method to return (Zero|One) so we don't write it out everywhere. Maybe a method for (Zero|One).isAllOnesValue() to determine if all bits are known. I'm sure there are many other methods we can come up with.

This patch uses various APInt methods to reduce temporary APInt creation.
This should be all of the unrelated cleanups that got buried in D32376(creating a KnownBits struct) as well as some pointed out by Simon during the review of that. Plus a few improvements to use counting instead of masking.
I've left out any places where we do something like (KnownZero & KnownOne) != 0 as I plan to add a helper method to KnownBits to ask that question and didn't want to thrash that code an additional time.

Implement isLegalToVectorizeLoadChain for AMDGPU to avoid
producing private address spaces accesses that will need to be
split up later. This was doing the wrong thing in the case
where the queried chain was an even number of elements.
A possible <4 x i32> store was being split into
store <2 x i32>
store i32
store i32
rather than
store <2 x i32>
store <2 x i32>
when legal.

Summary:
The "getVectorizablePrefix" method would give up if it found an aliasing load for a store chain.
In practice, the aliasing load can be treated as a memory barrier and all stores that precede it
are a valid vectorizable prefix.

Summary:
LSV was using two vector sets (heads and tails) to track pairs of adjiacent position to vectorize.
A recent optimization is trying to obtain the longest chain to vectorize and assumes the positions
in heads(H) and tails(T) match, which is not the case is there are multiple tails for the same head.
e.g.:
i1: store a[0]
i2: store a[1]
i3: store a[1]
Leads to:
H: i1
T: i2 i3
Instead of:
H: i1 i1
T: i2 i3
So the positions for instructions that follow i3 will have different indexes in H/T.
This patch resolves PR29148.
This issue also surfaced the fact that if the chain is too long, and TLI
returns a "not-fast" answer, the whole chain will be abandoned for
vectorization, even though a smaller one would be beneficial.
Added a testcase and FIXME for this.

Summary:
In getVectorizablePrefix, this is less efficient (because we have to
iterate over the BB twice), but boy is it simpler. Given how much
trouble we've had here, I think the simplicity gain is worthwhile.
In reorder(), this is actually more efficient, as
DominatorTree::dominates iterates over the BB from the beginning when
the two instructions are in the same BB.

Summary:
TargetBaseAlign is no longer required since LSV checks if target allows misaligned accesses.
A constant defining a base alignment is still needed for stack accesses where alignment can be adjusted.
Previous patch (D22936) was reverted because tests were failing. This patch also fixes the cause of those failures:
- x86 failing tests either did not have the right target, or the right alignment.
- NVPTX failing tests did not have the right alignment.
- AMDGPU failing test (merge-stores) should allow vectorization with the given alignment but the target info
considers <3xi32> a non-standard type and gives up early. This patch removes the condition and only checks
for a maximum size allowed and relies on the next condition checking for %4 for correctness.
This should be revisited to include 3xi32 as a MVT type (on arsenm's non-immediate todo list).
Note that checking the sizeInBits for a MVT is undefined (leads to an assertion failure),
so we need to create an EVT, hence the interface change in allowsMisaligned to include the Context.

Summary:
Given the crash in D22878, this patch converts the load/store vectorizer
to use explicit Instruction*s wherever possible. This is an overall
simplification and should be an improvement in safety, as we have fewer
naked cast<>s, and now where we use Value*, we really mean something
different from Instruction*.
This patch also gets rid of some cast<>s around Value*s returned by
Builder. Given that Builder constant-folds everything, we can't assume
much about what we get out of it.
One downside of this patch is that we have to copy our chain before
calling propagateMetadata. But I don't think this is a big deal, as our
chains are very small (usually 2 or 4 elems).

this is not sufficiently restrictive: Stores can't safely be moved
across instructions that may load.

are either loads or stores.

Summary:
Previously, the insertion point for stores was the last instruction in
Chain *before calling getVectorizablePrefixEndIdx*. Thus if
getVectorizablePrefixEndIdx didn't return Chain.size(), we still would
insert at the last instruction in Chain.
This patch changes our internal API a bit in an attempt to make it less
prone to this sort of error. As a result, we end up recalculating the
Chain's boundary instructions, but I think worrying about the speed hit
of this is a premature optimization right now.

Summary:
Aiming to correct the ordering of loads/stores. This patch changes the
insert point for loads to the position of the first load.
It updates the ordering method for loads to insert before, rather than after.
Before this patch the following sequence:
"load a[1], store a[1], store a[0], load a[2]"
Would incorrectly vectorize to "store a[0,1], load a[1,2]".
The correctness check was assuming the insertion point for loads is at
the position of the first load, when in practice it was at the last
load. An alternative fix would have been to invert the correctness check.
The current fix changes insert position but also requires reordering of
instructions before the vectorized load.
Updated testcases to reflect the changes.
