This reverts commit r296535.

There are still some open design questions which I would like to discuss. I
revert this for Daniel (who gave the OK), as he is on vacation.

Daniel Berlin 03f6938edc Fix PR 24415 (at least), by making our post-dominator tree behavior sane.
Summary:
Currently, our post-dom tree tries to ignore and remove the effects of
infinite loops.  It fails miserably at this, because it tries to do it
ahead of time, and thus can only detect self-loops, and any other type
of infinite loop, it pretends doesn't exist at all.

This can, in a bunch of cases, lead to wrong answers and a completely
empty post-dom tree.

Wrong answer:

```
declare void foo()
define internal void @f() {
entry:
  br i1 undef, label %bb35, label %bb3.i

bb3.i:
  call void @foo()
  br label %bb3.i

bb35.loopexit3:
  br label %bb35

bb35:
  ret void
}
```
We get:
```
Inorder PostDominator Tree:
  [1]  <<exit node>> {0,7}
    [2] %bb35 {1,6}
      [3] %bb35.loopexit3 {2,3}
      [3] %entry {4,5}
```

This is a trivial modification of the testcase for PR 6047
Note that we pretend bb3.i doesn't exist.
We also pretend that bb35 post-dominates entry.

While it's true that it does not exit in a theoretical sense, it's not
really helpful to try to ignore the effect and pretend that bb35
post-dominates entry.  Worse, we pretend the infinite loop does
nothing (it's usually considered a side-effect), and doesn't even
exist, even when it calls a function.  Sadly, this makes it impossible
to use when you are trying to move code safely.  All compilers also
create virtual or real single exit nodes (including us), and connect
infinite loops there (which this patch does).  In fact, others have
worked around our behavior here, to the point of building their own
post-dom trees:
https://zneak.github.io/fcd/2016/02/17/structuring.html and pointing
out the region infrastructure is near-useless for them with postdom in
this state :(

Completely empty post-dom tree:
```
define void @spam() #0 {
bb:
  br label %bb1

bb1:                                              ; preds = %bb1, %bb
  br label %bb1

bb2:                                              ; No predecessors!
  ret void
}
```
Printing analysis 'Post-Dominator Tree Construction' for function 'foo':
=============================--------------------------------
Inorder PostDominator Tree:
  [1]  <<exit node>> {0,1}

:(

(note that even if you ignore the effects of infinite loops, bb2
should be present as an exit node that post-dominates nothing).

This patch changes post-dom to properly handle infinite loops and does
root finding during calculation to prevent empty tress in such cases.

We match gcc's (and the canonical theoretical) behavior for infinite
loops (find the backedge, connect it to the exit block).

Testcases coming as soon as i finish running this on a ton of random graphs :)

Serge Pavlov 0668cd2c95 [StructurizeCfg] Update dominator info.
In some cases StructurizeCfg updates root node, but dominator info
remains unchanges, it causes crash when expensive checks are enabled.
To cope with this problem a new method was added to DominatorTreeBase
that allows adding new root nodes, it is called in StructurizeCfg to
put dominator tree in sync.

This change fixes PR27488.

Matt Arsenault 6ea0aade26 StructurizeCFG: Fix verification failure with some loops.
If the beginning of the loop was also the entry block
of the function, branches were inserted to the entry block
which isn't allowed. If this occurs, create a new dummy
function entry block that branches to the start of the loop.
