linear scan reg alloc. This fixes a problem I ran into where extracting
a function from a larger file caused the generated code to change (masking
the problem I was trying to debug) because the allocator behaved differently.
This changes the results for two X86 regression checks. stack-color-with-reg
is improved, with one less instruction, but pr3495 is worse, with one more
copy. As far as I can tell, these tests were just getting lucky or unlucky,
so I've changed the expected results.

trip counts in more cases.
Generalize ScalarEvolution's isLoopGuardedByCond code to recognize
And and Or conditions, splitting the code out into an
isNecessaryCond helper function so that it can evaluate Ands and Ors
recursively, and make SCEVExpander be much more aggressive about
hoisting instructions out of loops.
test/CodeGen/X86/pr3495.ll has an additional instruction now, but
it appears to be due to an arbitrary register allocation difference.

have pointer types, though in contrast to C pointer types, SCEV
addition is never implicitly scaled. This not only eliminates the
need for special code like IndVars' EliminatePointerRecurrence
and LSR's own GEP expansion code, it also does a better job because
it lets the normal optimizations handle pointer expressions just
like integer expressions.
Also, since LLVM IR GEPs can't directly index into multi-dimensional
VLAs, moving the GEP analysis out of client code and into the SCEV
framework makes it easier for clients to handle multi-dimensional
VLAs the same way as other arrays.
Some existing regression tests show improved optimization.
test/CodeGen/ARM/2007-03-13-InstrSched.ll in particular improved to
the point where if-conversion started kicking in; I turned it off
for this test to preserve the intent of the test.
