This extends the safe-divisor widening scheme recently added for scalable vectors to handle fixed vectors as well.

VPReplicateRecipe::isUniform actually means uniform-per-parts, hence a
scalar instruction is generated per-part.
This is a potential alternative D132892. For now the current patch only
catches cases where the address is trivially invariant (defined outside
VPlan), while D132892 catches any address that is considered invariant
by SCEV AFAICT.
It should be possible to hoist fully invariant recipes feeding loads out
of the vector loop region as well, but in practice LICM should do that
already.
This version of the patch artificially limits this to loads to make it
easier to compare, but this restriction should be easily liftable.

Users of LCSSA may not expect non-phi uses when checking the uses
outside a loop, which may cause crashes. This is due to the fact that we
do not update uses in unreachable blocks.
To ensure all reachable uses outside the loop are phis, update uses in
unreachable blocks to use poison in dead code.
Fixes#57508.
This patch moves the cost-based decision whether to use an intrinsic or
library call to the point where the recipe is created. This untangles
code-gen from the cost model and also avoids doing some extra work as
the information is already computed at construction.

It looks like the vector loops in the modified test cases
unintentionally never get executed. Update the exit condition to ensure
it does to avoid them getting optimized away in upcoming changes.
This change enables the use of RISCV's variable length vector registers for fixed length vectors in the IR, and implicitly enables various IR transforms which generate fixed length vectors if legal (e.g. LoopVectorize). Specifically, this enables fixed length vectors which are known to be inbounds of the underlying variable hardware size.
For context, remember that the +V extension provides a minimum VLEN of 128. The embedded variants provide lower minimums. The analogy here is essentially vectorizing for SSE on a machine which may or may not include AVX2/AVX512. We won't get full utilization by default, but we will get some benefit. And of course, with an explicit mcpu we can vectorize to the exact target hardware.
The LV impact is mostly related to vectorizer robustness. In cases we haven't yet fully implemented scalable vectorization support, we can fall back to fixed length vectorization.
SLP has been disabled for now, even when fixed vectors are enabled. See a310637 and associated review. There are a few addiitional code quality issues which need worked through before turning SLP on would be reasonable.

The simpler diff-checks require pointers with add-recs from the same
innermost loop, but this property wasn't check completely. Add the
missing check to ensure both addrecs are in the innermost loop.
Fixes#57315.
Add a variation of @nested_loop_outer_iv_addrec_invariant_in_inner with
the dependence sink and source swapped to extend test coverage.
Also simplifies the test by removing an unneeded reduction.
When we have a dependency with a dependence distance which can only be hit on an iteration beyond the actual trip count of the loop, we can ignore that dependency when analyzing said loop. We already had this code, but had restricted it solely to unknown dependence distances. This change applies it to all dependence distances.
Without this code, we relied on the vectorizer reducing VF such that our infeasible dependence was respected. This usually worked out to about the same result, but not always. For fixed length vectorization, this could mean a smaller VF than optimal being chosen or additional runtime checks. For scalable vectorization - where the bounds on access implied by VF are broader - we could often not find a feasible VF at all.

This patch adds support for vectorizing conditionally executed div/rem operations via a variant of widening. The existing support for predicated divrem in the vectorizer requires scalarization which we can't do for scalable vectors.
The basic idea is that we can always divide (take remainder) by 1 without executing UB. As such, we can use the active lane mask to conditional select either the actual divisor for active lanes, or a constant one for inactive lanes. We already account for the cost of the active lane mask, so the only additional cost is a splat of one and the vector select. This is one of several possible approaches to this problem; see the review thread for discussion on some of the others. This one was chosen mostly because it was straight forward, and none of the others seemed oviously better.
I enabled the new code only for scalable vectors. We could also legally enable it for fixed vectors as well, but I haven't thought through the cost tradeoffs between widening and scalarization enough to know if that's profitable. This will be explored in future patches.

The existing cost model for fixed-order recurrences models the phi as an
extract shuffle of a v1 vector. The shuffle produced should be a splice,
as they take two vectors inputs are extracting from a subset of the
lanes. On certain architectures the existing cost model can drastically
under-estimate the correct cost for the shuffle, so this changes it to a
SK_Splice and passes a correct Mask through to the getShuffleCost call.
I believe this might be the first use of a SK_Splice shuffle cost model
outside of scalable vectors, and some targets may require additions to
the cost-model to correctly account for them. In tree targets appear to
all have been updated where needed.

Don't demand low order bits from the LHS of an Add if:
- they are not demanded in the result, and
- they are known to be zero in the RHS, so they can't possibly
overflow and affect higher bit positions

the order of canonicalization of ADD and AND.

(X op Y) op Z --> (Y op Z) op X
This isn't a complete solution (see TODO tests for possible refinements),
but it shows some nice wins and doesn't seem to cause any harm. I think
the most potential danger is from conflicting with other folds and causing
an infinite loop - that's the reason for avoiding patterns with constant
operands.
Alternatively, we could try this in the reassociate pass, but we would not
immediately see all of the logic folds that instcombine provides. I also
looked at improving ValueTracking's isImpliedCondition() (and we should
still add some enhancements there), but that would not work in general for
bitwise logic reduction.
The tests that reduce completely to 0/-1 are motivated by issue #56653.

Whilst writing a patch to add extra tail-folding RUN lines to
existing tests I noticed a few areas where they can be
cleaned up a little:
1. scalable-reductions.ll: fmin_fast does not mark fcmp as fast.
2. sve-inductions-unusual-types.ll: remove direct references to
SSA variable names.
3. sve-strict-fadd-cost.ll: don't force vector width so we see
costs for different VFs in one go. This will be important for
the follow-on patch.
4. sve-vector-reverse.ll,vector-reverse-mask4.ll: add noalias
keyword to simplify IR.
4. sve-widen-gep.ll,sve-widen-phi.ll: regenerate using script.
These changes will make the subsequent patch adding RUN lines much
easier to review!

On known hardware, reductions, gather, and scatter operations have execution latencies which correlated with the vector length (VL) of the operation. Most other operations (e.g. simply arithmetic) don't correlated in this way, and instead essentially fixed cost as VL varies.
When I'd implemented initial scalable cost model support for reductions, gather, and scatter operations, I had used an upper bound on the statically unknown VL. The argument at the time was that this prevented falsely low costs, and biased the vectorizer away from generating bad (on some hardware) code. Unfortunately, practical experience shows we were a bit too effective at that goal, and the high costs defacto prevents vectorization using these constructs at all.
This patch reverses course, and ties the returned cost not to the maximum possible VL, but the VL which would correspond to VScaleForTuning. This parameter is the same one the vectorizer uses when normalizing loop costs, so the term effectively cancels out. The result is that the vectorizer now sees these constructs as comparable in cost to their fixed length variants.
This does introduce the possibility of the cost for these operations being a significant under estimate on platforms where actual VLEN is far from that implied by VScaleForTuning. On such platforms, we might make poor heuristic choices. Probably not in LV itself (due to the cancellation mentioned above), but possibly during e.g. lowering. I'm not currently aware of any concrete examples of this, but this patch does open a concern which did not previously exist.
Previously, we had the problem of overestimating costs causing the same problem on machines much closer to default values for vscale for tuning. With this patch, we still have that problem potentially if vscale for tuning is set high (manually), and then the code is run on a narrow VLEN machine.

If the incoming previous value of a fixed-order recurrence is a phi in
the header, go through incoming values from the latch until we find a
non-phi value. Use this as the new Previous, all uses in the header
will be dominated by the original phi, but need to be moved after
the non-phi previous value.
At the moment, fixed-order recurrences are modeled as a chain of
first-order recurrences.

This change reorganizes the code and comments to make the expected semantics of these routines more clear. However, this is *not* an NFC change. The functional change is having isScalarWithPredication return false if the instruction does not need predicated. Specifically, for the case of a uniform memory operation we were previously considering it *not* to be a predicated instruction, but *were* considering it to be scalable with predication.
As can be seen with the test changes, this causes uniform memory ops which should have been lowered as uniform-per-parts values to instead be lowering via naive scalarization or if scalarization is infeasible (i.e. scalable vectors) aborted entirely. I also don't trust the code to bail out correctly 100% of the time, so it's possible we had a crash or miscompile from trying to scalarize something which isn't scalaralizable. I haven't found a concrete example here, but I am suspicious.

This extends the handling of uniform memory operations to handle the case where a store is storing a loop invariant value. Unlike the general case of a store to an invariant address where we must use the last active lane, in this case we can use any lane since all lanes must produce the same result.
For context, the basic structure of the existing code and how the change fits in:
* First, we select a widening strategy. (The result is irrelevant for this patch.)
* Then we determine if a computation is uniform within all lanes of VF. (Note this is the uniform-per-part definition, not LAI's uniform across all unrolled iterations definition.)
* If it is, we overrule the widening strategy, and unconditionally scalarize.
* VPReplicationRecipe - which is what actually does the scalarization - knows how to handle unform-per-part values including for scalable vectors. However, we do need to know that the expression is safe to execute without predication - e.g. the uniform mem op was unconditional in the original loop. (This part was split off and already landed.)
An obvious question is why not simply implement the generic case? The answer is that I'm going to, but doing so without a canonicalization towards uniform causes regressions due to bad interaction with scalarization/uniformity of values feeding the uniform mem-op. This patch is needed to avoid those regressions.

If we have interleave groups in the loop we want to vectorise then
we should fall back on normal vectorisation with a scalar epilogue. In
such cases when tail-folding is enabled we'll almost certainly go on to
create vplans with very high costs for all vector VFs and fall back on
VF=1 anyway. This is likely to be worse than if we'd just used an
unpredicated vector loop in the first place.
Once the vectoriser has proper support for analysing all the costs
for each combination of VF and vectorisation style, then we should
be able to remove this.
Added an extra test here:

We already had the reasoning about uniform mem op loads; if the address is accessed at least once, we know the instruction doesn't need predicated to ensure fault safety. For stores, we do need to ensure that the values visible in memory are the same with and without predication. The easiest sub-case to check for is that all the values being stored are the same. Since we know that at least one lane is active, this tells us that the value must be visible.
Warning on confusing terminology: "uniform" vs "uniform mem op" mean two different things here, and this patch is specific to the later. It would *not* be legal to make this same change for merely "uniform" operations.

This change enables vectorization (using scalable vectorization only, fixed vectors are not yet enabled) for RISCV when vector instructions are available for the target configuration.
At this point, the resulting configuration should be both stable (e.g. no crashes), and profitable (i.e. few cases where scalar loops beat vector ones), but is not going to be particularly well tuned (i.e. we emit the best possible vector loop). The goal of this change is to align testing across organizations and ensure the default configuration matches what downstreams are using as closely as possible.
This exposes a large amount of code which hasn't otherwise been on by default, and thus may not have been fully exercised. Given that, having issues fall out is not unexpected. If you find issues, please make sure to include as much information as you can when reverting this change.

The problem here is target independent, but particularly painful on RISCV. If we chose to vectorize such that vscale x 2 x i32 is our widest type and fits in a register, a naive expansion of i64 comparisons results in comparisons and index types at <scalabe x 2 x i64>. This requires both an LMUL of 2, and a VSETVLI toggle in the loop. Note that we could have used <vscale x 2 x i32> for the compairons legally given the range of the trip count.
