There are too many perf regressions resulting from this, so we need to
investigate (and add tests for) targets like ARM and AArch64 before
trying to reinstate.

This change was mentioned at least as far back as:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26837#c26
...and I found a real program that is harmed by this:
Himeno running on AMD Jaguar gets 6% slower with SLP vectorization:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36280
...but the change here appears to solve that bug only accidentally.
The div/rem costs for x86 look very wrong in some cases, but that's already true,
so we can fix those in follow-up patches. There's also evidence that more cost model
changes are needed to solve SLP problems as shown in D42981, but that's an independent
problem (though the solution may be adjusted after this change is made).

The approach I followed was to emit the remark after getTreeCost concludes
that SLP is profitable. I initially tried emitting them after the
vectorizeRootInstruction calls in vectorizeChainsInBlock but I vaguely
remember missing a few cases for example in HorizontalReduction::tryToReduce.
ORE is placed in BoUpSLP so that it's available from everywhere (notably
HorizontalReduction::tryToReduce).
We use the first instruction in the root bundle as the locator for the remark.
In order to get a sense how far the tree is spanning I've include the size of
the tree in the remark. This is not perfect of course but it gives you at
least a rough idea about the tree. Then you can follow up with -view-slp-tree
to really see the actual tree.
