Original commit r311077 of D32871 was reverted in r311304 due to failures
reported in PR34248.
This recommit fixes PR34248 by restricting the packing of predicated scalars
into vectors only when vectorizing, avoiding doing so when unrolling w/o
vectorizing. Added a test derived from the reproducer of PR34248.

VPlan is an ongoing effort to refactor and extend the Loop Vectorizer. This
patch introduces the VPlan model into LV and uses it to represent the vectorized
code and drive the generation of vectorized IR.
In this patch VPlan models the vectorized loop body: the vectorized control-flow
is represented using VPlan's Hierarchical CFG, with predication refactored from
being a post-vectorization-step into a vectorization planning step modeling
if-then VPRegionBlocks, and generating code inline with non-predicated code. The
vectorized code within each VPBasicBlock is represented as a sequence of
Recipes, each responsible for modelling and generating a sequence of IR
instructions. To keep the size of this commit manageable the Recipes in this
patch are coarse-grained and capture large chunks of LV's code-generation logic.
The constructed VPlans are dumped in dot format under -debug.
This commit retains current vectorizer output, except for minor instruction
reorderings; see associated modifications to lit tests.
For further details on the VPlan model see docs/Proposals/VectorizationPlan.rst
and its references.

It served us well, helped kick-start much of the vectorization efforts
in LLVM, etc. Its time has come and past. Back in 2014:

Time to actually let go and move forward. =]
I've updated the release notes both about the removal and the
deprecation of the corresponding C API.

This patch updates a bunch of places where add_dependencies was being explicitly called to add dependencies on intrinsics_gen to instead use the DEPENDS named parameter. This cleanup is needed for a patch I'm working on to add a dependency debugging mode to the build system.

This allows IDEs to recognize the entire set of header files for
each of the core LLVM projects.

Rewrote the SLP-vectorization as a whole-function vectorization pass. It is now able to vectorize chains across multiple basic blocks.
It still does not vectorize PHIs, but this should be easy to do now that we scan the entire function.
I removed the support for extracting values from trees.
We are now able to vectorize more programs, but there are some serious regressions in many workloads (such as flops-6 and mandel-2).

This commit adds the infrastructure for performing bottom-up SLP vectorization (and other optimizations) on parallel computations.
The infrastructure has three potential users:
1. The loop vectorizer needs to be able to vectorize AOS data structures such as (sum += A[i] + A[i+1]).
2. The BB-vectorizer needs this infrastructure for bottom-up SLP vectorization, because bottom-up vectorization is faster to compute.
3. A loop-roller needs to be able to analyze consecutive chains and roll them into a loop, in order to reduce code size. A loop roller does not need to create vector instructions, and this infrastructure separates the chain analysis from the vectorization.
This patch also includes a simple (100 LOC) bottom up SLP vectorizer that uses the infrastructure, and can vectorize this code:
void SAXPY(int *x, int *y, int a, int i) {
x[i] = a * x[i] + y[i];
x[i+1] = a * x[i+1] + y[i+1];
x[i+2] = a * x[i+2] + y[i+2];
x[i+3] = a * x[i+3] + y[i+3];
}

This is the initial checkin of the basic-block autovectorization pass along with some supporting vectorization infrastructure.
Special thanks to everyone who helped review this code over the last several months (especially Tobias Grosser).
