done by condprop, but do it in a much more general form. The
basic idea is that we can do a limited form of tail duplication
in the case when we have a branch on a phi. Moving the branch
up in to the predecessor block makes instruction selection
much easier and encourages chained jump threadings.

DemoteRegToStack. This makes it more efficient (because it isn't
creating a ton of load/stores that are eventually removed by a later
mem2reg), and more slightly more effective (because those load/stores
don't get in the way of threading).

as if they were multiple uses of the same instruction. This interacts
well with the existing loadpre that j-t does to open up many new jump
threads earlier.

ThreadEdge directly. This shares the code, but is just a refactoring.
* Make JumpThreading compute the set of loop headers and avoid threading
across them. This prevents jump threading from forming irreducible
loops (goodness) but also prevents it from threading in other cases that
are beneficial (see the comment above FindFunctionBackedges).

1) have it fold "br undef", which does occur with
surprising frequency as jump threading iterates.
2) teach j-t to delete dead blocks. This removes the successor
edges, reducing the in-edges of other blocks, allowing
recursive simplification.
3) Fold things like:
br COND, BBX, BBY
BBX:
br COND, BBZ, BBW
which also happens because jump threading iterates.

new instructions it simplifies. Because we're threading jumps on edges
with constants coming in from PHI's, we inherently are exposing a lot more
constants to the new block. Folding them and deleting dead conditions
allows the cost model in jump threading to be more accurate as it iterates.

1. Make it fold blocks separated by an unconditional branch. This enables
jump threading to see a broader scope.
2. Make jump threading able to eliminate locally redundant loads when they
feed the branch condition of a block. This frequently occurs due to
reg2mem running.
3. Make jump threading able to eliminate *partially redundant* loads when
they feed the branch condition of a block. This is common in code with
lots of loads and stores like C++ code and 255.vortex.
This implements thread-loads.ll and rdar://6402033.
Per the fixme's, several pieces of this should be moved into Transforms/Utils.

Remove the GetResultInst instruction. It is still accepted in LLVM assembly
and bitcode, where it is now auto-upgraded to ExtractValueInst. Also, remove
support for return instructions with multiple values. These are auto-upgraded
to use InsertValueInst instructions.
The IRBuilder still accepts multiple-value returns, and auto-upgrades them
to InsertValueInst instructions.
