BasicAA stores a reference to LoopInfo inside. This imposes an implicit
requirement of keeping it up to date whenever we modify the IR (in particular,
whenever we modify terminators of blocks that belong to loops). Failing
to do so leads to incorrect state of the LoopInfo.
Because general AA does not require loop info updates and provides to API to
update it properly, the users of AA reasonably assume that there is no need to
update the loop info. It may be a reason of bugs, as example in PR43276 shows.
This patch drops dependence of BasicAA on LoopInfo to avoid this problem.
This may potentially pessimize the result of queries to BasicAA.

By using PhiValuesAnalysis we can get all the values reachable from a phi, so
we can be more precise instead of giving up when a phi has phi operands. We
can't make BaseicAA directly use PhiValuesAnalysis though, as the user of
BasicAA may modify the function in ways that PhiValuesAnalysis can't cope with.
For this optional usage to work correctly BasicAAWrapperPass now needs to be not
marked as CFG-only (i.e. it is now invalidated even when CFG is preserved) due
to how the legacy pass manager handles dependent passes being invalidated,
namely the depending pass still has a pointer to the now-dead dependent pass.

BasicAA in r290603.
I've kept the basic testing in the new PM test file as that also covers
the AAManager invalidation logic. If/when there is a good place for
broader AA testing it could move there.
This test is somewhat unsatisfying as I can't get it to fail even with
ASan outside of explicit checks of the invalidation. Apparently we don't
yet have any test coverage of the BasicAA code paths using either the
domtree or loopinfo -- I made both of them always be null and check-llvm
passed.
