Summary:
This patch is crucial for proving equality laundered/stripped
pointers. eg:
bool foo(A *a) {
return a == std::launder(a);
}
Clang with -fstrict-vtable-pointers will emit something like:
define dso_local zeroext i1 @_Z3fooP1A(%struct.A* %a) {
entry:
%c = bitcast %struct.A* %a to i8*
%call = tail call i8* @llvm.launder.invariant.group.p0i8(i8* %c)
%0 = bitcast %struct.A* %a to i8*
%1 = tail call i8* @llvm.strip.invariant.group.p0i8(i8* %0)
%2 = tail call i8* @llvm.strip.invariant.group.p0i8(i8* %call)
%cmp = icmp eq i8* %1, %2
ret i1 %cmp
}
and because %2 can be replaced with @llvm.strip.invariant.group(%0)
and that %2 and %1 will produce the same value (because strip is readnone)
we can replace compare with true.

Summary:
invariant.group.launder should not stop propagation
of nonnull and dereferenceable, because e.g. we would not be
able to hoist loads speculatively.
