Modified patch by Adam Preuss.
This builds on the existing framework for block tracing, edge profiling and optimal edge profiling.
See -help-hidden for new flags.
For documentation, see the technical report "Implementation of Path Profiling..." in llvm.org/pubs.

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.

The RegionInfo pass detects single entry single exit regions in a function,
where a region is defined as any subgraph that is connected to the remaining
graph at only two spots.
Furthermore an hierarchical region tree is built.
Use it by calling "opt -regions analyze" or "opt -view-regions".

such a way that debug info for symbols preserved even if symbols are
optimized away by the optimizer.
Add new special pass to remove debug info for such symbols.

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.

Update all analysis passes and transforms to treat free calls just like FreeInst.
Remove RaiseAllocations and all its tests since FreeInst no longer needs to be raised.

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.

This adds a pass to verify the current profile against the flow conditions.
This is very helpful when later on trying to perserve the profiling information
during all passes.

This is a simple AliasAnalysis implementation which works by making
ScalarEvolution queries. ScalarEvolution has a more complete understanding
of arithmetic than BasicAA's collection of ad-hoc checks, so it handles
some cases that BasicAA misses, for example p[i] and p[i+1] within the
same iteration of a loop.
This is currently experimental. It may be that the main use for this pass
will be to help find cases where BasicAA can be profitably extended, or
to help in the development of the overall AliasAnalysis infrastructure,
however it's also possible that it could grow up to become a directly
useful pass.

For now this only computes the allocated size of the memory pointed to by a
pointer, and offset a pointer from allocated pointer.
The actual checkLimits part will come later, after another round of review.
