So let's just reland this.
Original commit message:
I've been looking at missed vectorizations in one codebase.
One particular thing that stands out is that some of the loops
reach vectorizer in a rather mangled form, with weird PHI's,
and some of the loops aren't even in a rotated form.
After taking a more detailed look, that happened because
the loop's headers were too big by then. It is evident that
SimplifyCFG's common code hoisting transform is at fault there,
because the pattern it handles is precisely the unrotated
loop basic block structure.
Surprizingly, `SimplifyCFGOpt::HoistThenElseCodeToIf()` is enabled
by default, and is always run, unlike it's friend, common code sinking
transform, `SinkCommonCodeFromPredecessors()`, which is not enabled
by default and is only run once very late in the pipeline.
I'm proposing to harmonize this, and disable common code hoisting
until //late// in pipeline. Definition of //late// may vary,
here currently i've picked the same one as for code sinking,
but i suppose we could enable it as soon as right after
loop rotation happens.
Experimentation shows that this does indeed unsurprizingly help,
more loops got rotated, although other issues remain elsewhere.
Now, this undoubtedly seriously shakes phase ordering.
This will undoubtedly be a mixed bag in terms of both compile- and
run- time performance, codesize. Since we no longer aggressively
hoist+deduplicate common code, we don't pay the price of said hoisting
(which wasn't big). That may allow more loops to be rotated,
so we pay that price. That, in turn, that may enable all the transforms
that require canonical (rotated) loop form, including but not limited to
vectorization, so we pay that too. And in general, no deduplication means
more [duplicate] instructions going through the optimizations. But there's still
late hoisting, some of them will be caught late.
As per benchmarks i've run {F12360204}, this is mostly within the noise,
there are some small improvements, some small regressions.
One big regression i saw i fixed in rG8d487668d09fb0e4e54f36207f07c1480ffabbfd, but i'm sure
this will expose many more pre-existing missed optimizations, as usual :S

* this does regress compile-time by +0.5% geomean (unsurprizingly)
* size impact varies; for ThinLTO it's actually an improvement
The largest fallout appears to be in GVN's load partial redundancy
elimination, it spends *much* more time in
`MemoryDependenceResults::getNonLocalPointerDependency()`.
Non-local `MemoryDependenceResults` is widely-known to be, uh, costly.
There does not appear to be a proper solution to this issue,
other than silencing the compile-time performance regression
by tuning cut-off thresholds in `MemoryDependenceResults`,
at the cost of potentially regressing run-time performance.
D84609 attempts to move in that direction, but the path is unclear
and is going to take some time.
If we look at stats before/after diffs, some excerpts:
* RawSpeed (the target) {F12360200}
* -14 (-73.68%) loops not rotated due to the header size (yay)
* -272 (-0.67%) `"Number of live out of a loop variables"` - good for vectorizer
* -3937 (-64.19%) common instructions hoisted
* +561 (+0.06%) x86 asm instructions
* -2 basic blocks
* +2418 (+0.11%) IR instructions
* vanilla test-suite + RawSpeed + darktable {F12360201}
* -36396 (-65.29%) common instructions hoisted
* +1676 (+0.02%) x86 asm instructions
* +662 (+0.06%) basic blocks
* +4395 (+0.04%) IR instructions
It is likely to be sub-optimal for when optimizing for code size,
so one might want to change tune pipeline by enabling sinking/hoisting
when optimizing for size.

This reverts commit 503deec218.
For intrinsics supported by ConstantRange, compute the result range
based on the argument ranges. We do this independently of whether
some or all of the input ranges are full, as we can often still

Rather than using SELECT instructions, use SRA, UADDO/ADDCARRY and
XORs to expand ABS. This is the multi-part version of the sequence
we use in LegalizeDAG.
It's also the same as the Custom sequence uses for i64 on 32-bit
and i128 on 64-bit. So we can remove the X86 customization.

This was supposed to be an NFC cleanup, but there's
a real logic difference (did not drop 'nsw') visible
in some tests in addition to an efficiency improvement.
This is because in the case where we have 2 GEPs,
the code was *always* swapping the operands and
negating the result. But if we have 2 GEPs, we
should *never* need swapping/negation AFAICT.
This is part of improving flags propagation noticed
with PR47430.
This is a follow-up suggested in D86420 - if we have a pair of stores
in inverted order for the target endian, we can rotate the source
bits into place.
The "be_i64_to_i16_order" test shows a limitation of the current
function (which might be avoided if we integrate this function with
the other cases in mergeConsecutiveStores). In the earlier
"be_i64_to_i16" test, we skip the first 2 stores because we do not
match the full set as consecutive or rotate-able, but then we reach
the last 2 stores and see that they are an inverted pair of 16-bit
stores. The "be_i64_to_i16_order" test alters the program order of
the stores, so we miss matching the sub-pattern.

optimizeEndCF removes EXEC restoring instruction case this instruction is the only one except the branch to the single successor and that successor contains EXEC mask restoring instruction that was lowered from END_CF belonging to IF_ELSE.
As a result of such optimization we get the basic block with the only one instruction that is a branch to the single successor.
In case the control flow can reach such an empty block from S_CBRANCH_EXEZ/EXECNZ it might happen that spill/reload instructions that were inserted later by register allocator are placed under exec == 0 condition and never execute.
Removing empty block solves the problem.
This change require further work to re-implement LIS updates. Recently, LIS is always nullptr in this pass. To enable it we need another patch to fix many places across the codegen.

We want the generice StdLibraryFunctionsChecker to report only if there
are no specific checkers that would handle the argument constraint for a
function.
Note, the assumptions are still evaluated, even if the arguement
constraint checker is set to not report. This means that the assumptions
made in the generic StdLibraryFunctionsChecker should be an
over-approximation of the assumptions made in the specific checkers. But
most importantly, the assumptions should not contradict.

We already simplify the unsigned comparisons if we've found the operands are non-negative, but we were still calling LowerVSETCCWithSUBUS which resulted in the PR47448 regressions.
Normal dead code elimination ignores assume intrinsics, so we fail to
delete assumes that are not meaningful (and potentially worse if they
cause conflicts with other assumptions).
The motivating example in https://llvm.org/PR47416 suggests that we
might have problems upstream from here (difference between C and C++),
but this should be a cheap way to make sure we remove more dead code.
