Callbr is no longer an indirect terminator in the sense that is
relevant here (that it's successors cannot be updated). The primary
effect of this change is that callbr no longer prevents formation
of loop simplify form.
I decided to drop the isIndirectTerminator() method entirely and
replace it with isa<IndirectBrInst>() checks. I assume this method
was added to abstract over indirectbr and callbr, but it never
really caught on, and there is nothing left to abstract anymore
at this point.

Following some recent discussions, this changes the representation
of callbrs in IR. The current blockaddress arguments are replaced
with `!` label constraints that refer directly to callbr indirect
destinations:
; Before:
%res = callbr i8* asm "", "=r,r,i"(i8* %x, i8* blockaddress(@test8, %foo))
to label %asm.fallthrough [label %foo]
; After:
%res = callbr i8* asm "", "=r,r,!i"(i8* %x)
to label %asm.fallthrough [label %foo]
The benefit of this is that we can easily update the successors of
a callbr, without having to worry about also updating blockaddress
references. This should allow us to remove some limitations:
* Allow unrolling/peeling/rotation of callbr, or any other
clone-based optimizations
(https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/41834)
* Allow duplicate successors
(https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/45248)
This is just the IR representation change though, I will follow up
with patches to remove limtations in various transformation passes
that are no longer needed.

In D115311, we're looking to modify clang to emit i constraints rather
than X constraints for callbr's indirect destinations. Prior to doing
so, update all of the existing tests in llvm/ to match.

This is enabled by default. Drop explicit uses in preparation for
removing the option.
Also drop RUN lines that are now the same (typically modulo a
-verify-memoryssa option).
As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.

Summary:
While implementing inlining support for callbr
(https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40722), I hit a crash in Loop
Rotation when trying to build the entire x86 Linux kernel
(drivers/char/random.c). This is a small fix up to r353563.
Test case is drivers/char/random.c (with callbr's inlined), then ran
through creduce, then `opt -opt-bisect-limit=<limit>`, then bugpoint.
Thanks to Craig Topper for immediately spotting the fix, and teaching me
how to fish.
