occurs because instcombine sinks loads and inserts phis. This kicks in
on such apps as 175.vpr, eon, 403.gcc, xalancbmk and a bunch of times in
spec2006 in some app that uses std::deque.
This resolves the last of rdar://7339113.

common cases. This triggers a surprising number of times in SPEC2K6
because min/max idioms end up doing this. For example, code from the
STL ends up looking like this to SRoA:
%202 = load i64* %__old_size, align 8, !tbaa !3
%203 = load i64* %__old_size, align 8, !tbaa !3
%204 = load i64* %__n, align 8, !tbaa !3
%205 = icmp ult i64 %203, %204
%storemerge.i = select i1 %205, i64* %__n, i64* %__old_size
%206 = load i64* %storemerge.i, align 8, !tbaa !3
We can now promote both the __n and the __old_size allocas.
This addresses another chunk of rdar://7339113, poor codegen on
stringswitch.

that have PHI or select uses of their element pointers. This can often happen
when instcombine sinks two loads into a successor, inserting a phi or select.
With this patch, we can scalarize the alloca, but the pinned elements are not
yet promoted. This is still a win for large aggregates where only one element
is used. This fixes rdar://8904039 and part of rdar://7339113 (poor codegen
on stringswitch).
