Previously it was only be able to detect problems if the pointer was a numerical
value (eg inttoptr i32 1 to i32*), but not if it was an alloca or globa. The
reason was the use of ComputeMaskedBits: imagine you have "alloca i8, align 2",
and ask ComputeMaskedBits what it knows about the bits of the alloca pointer.
It can tell you that the bottom bit is known zero (due to align 2) but it can't
tell you that bit 1 is known one. That's because the address could be an even
multiple of 2 rather than an odd multiple, eg it might be a multiple of 4. Thus
trying to use KnownOne is ineffective in the case of an alloca as it will never
have any bits set. Instead look explicitly for constant offsets from allocas
and globals.

This allows us to keep passing reduced masks to SimplifyDemandedBits, but
know about all the bits if SimplifyDemandedBits fails. This allows instcombine
to simplify cases like the one in the included testcase.

with BasicAA's DecomposeGEPExpression, which recently began
using a TargetData. This fixes PR8968, though the testcase
is awkward to reduce.
Also, update several off GetUnderlyingObject's users
which happen to have a TargetData handy to pass it in.

simplified to itself (this can only happen in unreachable blocks).
Change it to return null instead. Hopefully this will fix some
buildbot failures.

class, uses DominatorTree which is an analysis. This change moves all of
the tricky hasConstantValue logic to SimplifyInstruction, and replaces it
with a very simple literal implementation. I already taught users of
hasConstantValue that need tricky stuff to use SimplifyInstruction instead.
I didn't update InlineFunction because the IR looks like it might be in a
funky state at the point it calls hasConstantValue, which makes calling
SimplifyInstruction dangerous since it can in theory do a lot of tricky
reasoning. This may be a pessimization, for example in the case where
all phi node operands are either undef or a fixed constant.

must be called in the pass's constructor. This function uses static dependency declarations to recursively initialize
the pass's dependencies.
Clients that only create passes through the createFooPass() APIs will require no changes. Clients that want to use the
CommandLine options for passes will need to manually call the appropriate initialization functions in PassInitialization.h
before parsing commandline arguments.
I have tested this with all standard configurations of clang and llvm-gcc on Darwin. It is possible that there are problems
with the static dependencies that will only be visible with non-standard options. If you encounter any crash in pass
registration/creation, please send the testcase to me directly.

perform initialization without static constructors AND without explicit initialization
by the client. For the moment, passes are required to initialize both their
(potential) dependencies and any passes they preserve. I hope to be able to relax
the latter requirement in the future.
