I foresee two uses for this:
1) It's easier to use those in debugger.
2) Once we start implementing more VPlan-to-VPlan transformations (especially
inner loop massaging stuff), using the vectorized LLVM IR as CHECK targets in
LIT test would become too obscure. I can imagine that we'd want to CHECK
against VPlan dumps after multiple transformations instead. That would be
easier with plain text dumps than with DOT format.

This reverts commit 6b053c9867.
The build is broken:
ld.lld: error: undefined symbol: llvm::VPlan::printDOT(llvm::raw_ostream&) const
