Having a NoOpLoopNestPass can ensure that only outermost loop is invoked
for a LoopNestPass with a lit test.
There are some existing passes that are implemented as LoopNestPass, but
they are still using LOOP_PASS macro.
It would be easier to identify LoopNestPasses with a LOOPNEST_PASS
macro.

To help with debugging non-trivial unswitching issues.
Don't care about the legacy pass, nobody is using it.
If a pass's string params are empty (e.g. "simple-loop-unswitch"), don't
default to the empty constructor for the pass params. We should still
let the parser take care of it in case the parser has its own defaults.

It is confusing to have two ways of specifying the same pass
('simple-loop-unswitch' and 'unswitch'). This patch replaces
'unswitch' by 'simple-loop-unswitch' to get a unique identifier.
Using 'simple-loop-unswitch' instead of 'unswitch' also has the
advantage of matching how the pass is named in DEBUG_TYPE etc. So
this makes it a bit more consistent how we refer to the pass in
options such as -passes, -print-after and -debug-only.

It seems nicer to list passes given a flag rather than displaying all
passes in opt --help.
This is awkwardly structured because a PassBuilder is required, but
reusing the PassBuilder in runPassPipeline() doesn't work because we
read the input IR before getting to runPassPipeline(). So printing the
list of passes needs to happen before reading the input IR. If we remove
the legacy PM code in main() and move everything from NewPMDriver.cpp
into opt.cpp, we can create the PassBuilder before reading IR and check
if we should print the list of passes and exit. But until then this hack
seems fine.
Compared to the legacy PM, the new PM passes are lacking descriptions.
We'll need to figure out a way to add descriptions if we think this is
important.
Also, this only works for passes specified in PassRegistry.def. If we
want to print other custom registered passes, we'll need a different
mechanism.
