IVs.
Indvars previously chose randomly between congruent IVs. Now it will
bias the decision toward IVs that SCEVExpander likes to create. This
was not done to fix any problem, it's just a welcome side effect of
factoring code.

switch (n) {
case 27:
do_something(x);
...
}
the call do_something(x) will be replaced with do_something(27). In
gcc-as-one-big-file this results in the removal of about 500 lines of
bitcode (about 0.02%), so has about 1/10 of the effect of propagating
branch conditions.

While I'm here, fix the related issue with strncmp, add some actual tests for strcmp and strncmp, and start using StringRef::compare for constant folding instead of using strcmp/strncmp so that the optimized IR isn't dependent on the host's implementation of strcmp.

branch "br i1 %x, label %if_true, label %if_false" then it replaces
"%x" with "true" in places only reachable via the %if_true arm, and
with "false" in places only reachable via the %if_false arm. Except
that actually it doesn't: if value numbering shows that %y is equal
to %x then, yes, %y will be turned into true/false in this way, but
any occurrences of %x itself are not transformed. Fix this. What's
more, it's often the case that %x is an equality comparison such as
"%x = icmp eq %A, 0", in which case every occurrence of %A that is
only reachable via the %if_true arm can be replaced with 0. Implement
this and a few other variations on this theme. This reduces the number
of lines of LLVM IR in "GCC as one big file" by 0.2%. It has a bigger
impact on Ada code, typically reducing the number of lines of bitcode
by around 0.4% by removing repeated compiler generated checks. Passes
the LLVM nightly testsuite and the Ada ACATS testsuite.

it's OK for the false/true destination to have multiple
predecessors as long as the extra ones are dominated by
the branch destination.

This handles the case in which LSR rewrites an IV user that is a phi and
splits critical edges originating from a switch.
Fixes <rdar://problem/6453893> LSR is not splitting edges "nicely"

We want heuristics to be based on accurate data, but more importantly
we don't want llvm to behave randomly. A benign trunc inserted by an
upstream pass should not cause a wild swings in optimization
level. See PR11034. It's a general problem with threshold-based
heuristics, but we can make it less bad.

Rewriting the entire loop nest now requires -enable-lsr-nested.
See PR11035 for some performance data.
A few unit tests specifically test nested LSR, and are now under a flag.

The minor bug heuristic was noticed by inspection. I added the
isLoser/isValid helpers because they will become more
important with subsequent checkins.

No tests; these changes aren't really interesting in the sense that the logic is the same for volatile and atomic.
I believe this completes all of the changes necessary for the optimizer to handle loads and stores correctly. I'm going to try and come up with some additional testing, though.

better.
Don't immediately give up when an add operation can't be trivially
sign/zero-extended within a loop. If it has NSW/NUW flags, generate a
new expression with sign extended (non-recurrent) operand. As before,
if SCEV says that all sign extends are loop invariant, then we can
widen the operation.

This changes loop unrolling to use the same mechanism for trip count
computation as indvars. This is a stronger check that tends to unroll
more loops. A very common side-effect is that many single iteration
loops will be removed sooner. The real goal was simply to remove
dependence on canonical IVs.
x86 is break even.
ARM performance changes to expect (+ is good):
External/SPEC/CFP2000/183.equake/183.equake +13%
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Dhrystone/fldry +21%
MultiSource/Applications/spiff/spiff +3%
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Stanford/Puzzle -14%
The Puzzle regression is actually an improvement in loop optimization
that defeats GVN: rdar://problem/10065079.

The landingpad instruction is required in the landing pad block. Because we're
not deleting terminating instructions, the invoke may still jump to here (see
Transforms/SCCP/2004-11-16-DeadInvoke.ll). Remove all uses of the landingpad
instruction, but keep it around until code-gen can remove the basic block.
