In this patch we change test cases from using "CHECK" to using
"CHECK-NEXT", which is to ensure the order of loops output by
loop cache analysis is correct. After D124725 we fixed the
non-deterministic output order hence we did not use "CHECK-DAG"
anymore, and now we should really use "CHECK-NEXT" to make sure
the loops in the output loop vector follow the right order.

The print output of loop cache analysis sometimes has a non-deterministic order
and therefore we have been using `CHECK-DAG` in its lit tests. This patch changes
the sorting of LoopCosts to llvm::stable_sort() where we compare loop cost numbers
and sort the loops. In case of the same loop cost numbers, llvm::stable_sort() now
would output a deterministic loop order.

This is a followon to D109845. With that landed, we will have fixed all known instances of pr51817, and can thus start inferring flags more aggressively with greatly reduced risk of miscompiles. This patch simply applies the same inference logic used in that patch to our other major flag inference path.
We can still do much better here (on both paths), but this is our first step.

This fixes a violation of the wrap flag rules introduced in c4048d8f. This was also noted in the (very old) PR23527.
The issue being fixed is that we assume the inbound flag on any GEP assumes that all users of *any* gep (or add) which happens to map to that SCEV would also be UB if the (other) gep overflowed. That's simply not true.
In terms of the test diffs, I don't see anything seriously problematic. The lost flags are expected (given the semantic restriction on when its legal to tag the SCEV), and there are several cases where the previously inferred flags are unsound per the new semantics.
The only common trend I noticed when looking at the deltas is that by not considering branch on poison as immediate UB in ValueTracking, we do miss a few cases we could reclaim. We may be able to claw some of these back with the follow ideas mentioned in PR51817.
It's worth noting that most of the changes are analysis result only changes. The two transform changes are pretty minimal. In one case, we miss the opportunity to infer a nuw (correctly). In the other, we fail to fold an exit and produce a loop invariant form instead. This one is probably over-reduced as the program appears to be undefined in practice, and neither before or after exploits that.

Summary: Implement a new analysis to estimate the number of cache lines
required by a loop nest.
The analysis is largely based on the following paper:
Compiler Optimizations for Improving Data Locality
By: Steve Carr, Katherine S. McKinley, Chau-Wen Tseng
http://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/mckinley/papers/asplos-1994.pdf
The analysis considers temporal reuse (accesses to the same memory
location) and spatial reuse (accesses to memory locations within a cache
line). For simplicity the analysis considers memory accesses in the
innermost loop in a loop nest, and thus determines the number of cache
lines used when the loop L in loop nest LN is placed in the innermost
position.
The result of the analysis can be used to drive several transformations.
As an example, loop interchange could use it determine which loops in a
perfect loop nest should be interchanged to maximize cache reuse.
Similarly, loop distribution could be enhanced to take into
consideration cache reuse between arrays when distributing a loop to
eliminate vectorization inhibiting dependencies.
The general approach taken to estimate the number of cache lines used by
the memory references in the inner loop of a loop nest is:
Partition memory references that exhibit temporal or spatial reuse into
reference groups.
For each loop L in the a loop nest LN: a. Compute the cost of the
reference group b. Compute the 'cache cost' of the loop nest by summing
up the reference groups costs
For further details of the algorithm please refer to the paper.
