This includes not marking a GEP involving a vector as unsafe, but only when it
has all zero indices. This allows scalarrepl to work in a few more cases.

shifting and masking inside a bswap expr. This allows it to handle
the cases from PR2842, which involve the intermediate 'or'
expressions being shifted, not just the input value.

pointer bitcasts and GEP's", and centralize the
logic in Value::getUnderlyingObject. The
difference with stripPointerCasts is that
stripPointerCasts only strips GEPs if all
indices are zero, while getUnderlyingObject
strips GEPs no matter what the indices are.

- return attributes - inreg, zext and sext
- parameter attributes
- function attributes - nounwind, readonly, readnone, noreturn
Return attributes use 0 as the index.
Function attributes use ~0U as the index.
This patch requires corresponding changes in llvm-gcc and clang.

This sets the stage
- to implement function notes as function attributes and
- to distinguish between function attributes and return value attributes.
This requires corresponding changes in llvm-gcc and clang.

Unfortunately this means removing one regression test
of GlobalsModRef because I couldn't work out how to
perform it without MarkModRef.

- Recognize expressions like "x > -1 ? x : 0" as min/max and turn them
into expressions like "x < 0 ? 0 : x", which is easily recognizable
as a min/max operation.
- Refrain from folding expression like "y/2 < 1" to "y < 2" when the
comparison is being used as part of a min or max idiom, like
"y/2 < 1 ? 1 : y/2". In that case, the division has another use, so
folding doesn't eliminate it, and obfuscates the min/max, making it
harder to recognize as a min/max operation.
These benefit ScalarEvolution, CodeGen, and anything else that wants to
recognize integer min and max.

cases. See the comment above OptimizeSMax for the full story, and
the testcase for an example. This cancels out a pessimization
commonly attributed to indvars, and will allow us to lift some of
the artificial throttles in indvars, rather than add new ones.

Also, fix a subtle bug in SimplifyDemandedVectorElts'
insertelement code.
This is a patch that was originally written by Eli Friedman,
with some fixes and cleanup by me.

attributes on functions, based on the result of
alias analysis. It's not hardwired to use
GlobalsModRef even though this is the only (AFAIK)
alias analysis that results in this pass actually
doing something. Enable as follows:
opt ... -globalsmodref-aa -markmodref ...
Advantages of this pass: (1) records the result
of globalsmodref in the bitcode, meaning it is
available for use by later passes (currently
the pass manager isn't smart enough to magically
make an advanced alias analysis available to all
later passes), which may expose more optimization
opportunities; (2) hopefully speeds up compilation
when code is optimized twice, for example when a
file is compiled to bitcode, then later LTO is done
on it: marking functions readonly/readnone when
producing the initial bitcode should speed up alias
analysis during LTO; (3) good for discovering that
globalsmodref doesn't work very well :)
Not currently turned on by default.
