Nikita Popov 80a7041502 [BasicAA] Unify struct/other offset (NFC)
The distinction between StructOffset and OtherOffset has been
originally introduced by 82069c44ca39df9d506e16bfb0ca2481866dd0bb,
which applied different reasoning to both offset kinds. However,
this distinction was not actually correct, and has been fixed by
c84e77aeaefccb8d0c4c508b8017dcad80607f53. Since then, we only ever
consider the sum StructOffset + OtherOffset, so we may as well
store it in that form directly.

Analysis Opportunities:

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//

In test/Transforms/LoopStrengthReduce/quadradic-exit-value.ll, the
ScalarEvolution expression for %r is this:

  {1,+,3,+,2}<loop>

Outside the loop, this could be evaluated simply as (%n * %n), however
ScalarEvolution currently evaluates it as

  (-2 + (2 * (trunc i65 (((zext i64 (-2 + %n) to i65) * (zext i64 (-1 + %n) to i65)) /u 2) to i64)) + (3 * %n))

In addition to being much more complicated, it involves i65 arithmetic,
which is very inefficient when expanded into code.

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//

In formatValue in test/CodeGen/X86/lsr-delayed-fold.ll,

ScalarEvolution is forming this expression:

((trunc i64 (-1 * %arg5) to i32) + (trunc i64 %arg5 to i32) + (-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32)))

This could be folded to

(-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32))
