If ptr is a stack-allocated object and it points to the first byte of the
object, the object is initially marked as dead. ptr is conservatively
considered as a non-stack-allocated object if the stack coloring algorithm
that is used in the optimization pipeline cannot conclude that ptr is a
stack-allocated object.
By replacing the alloca pointer with the tagged address before this change,
we confused the stack coloring algorithm.

This is important as with exceptions enabled, non-POD allocas often have
two lifetime ends: the exception handler, and the normal one.
