Mircea Trofin d07528fa7d [NPM] Do not run function simplification pipeline unnecessarily
The CGSCC pass manager interplay with the FunctionAnalysisManagerCGSCCProxy is 'special' in the sense that the former will rerun the latter if there are changes to a SCC structure; that being said, some of the functions in the SCC may be unchanged. In that case, the function simplification pipeline will be re-run, which impacts compile time[1].

This patch allows the function simplification pipeline be skipped if it was already run and the function was not modified since.

The behavior is currently disabled by default. This is because, currently, the rerunning of the function simplification pipeline on an unchanged function may still result in changes. The patch simplifies investigating and fixing those cases where repeated function pass runs do actually positively impact code quality, while offering an easy workaround for those impacted negatively by compile time regressions, and not impacting mainline scenarios.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
================================

This directory and its subdirectories contain source code for LLVM,
a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers,
optimizers, and runtime environments.

LLVM is open source software. You may freely distribute it under the terms of
the license agreement found in LICENSE.txt.

Please see the documentation provided in docs/ for further
assistance with LLVM, and in particular docs/GettingStarted.rst for getting
started with LLVM and docs/README.txt for an overview of LLVM's
documentation setup.

If you are writing a package for LLVM, see docs/Packaging.rst for our
suggestions.
