This patch marks the induction increment of the main induction variable
of the vector loop as NUW when not folding the tail.
If the tail is not folded, we know that End - Start >= Step (either
statically or through the minimum iteration checks). We also know that both
Start % Step == 0 and End % Step == 0. We exit the vector loop if %IV +
%Step == %End. Hence we must exit the loop before %IV + %Step unsigned
overflows and we can mark the induction increment as NUW.
This should make SCEV return more precise bounds for the created vector
loops, used by later optimizations, like late unrolling.
At the moment quite a few tests still need to be updated, but before
doing so I'd like to get initial feedback to make sure I am not missing
anything.
Note that this could probably be further improved by using information
from the original IV.

D99674 stopped the folding of certain select operations into and/or, due
to incorrect folding in the presence of poison. D97360 added some costs
to attempt to account for the change, but only worked at the getUserCost
level, not the getCmpSelInstrCost that the vectorizer will use directly.
This adds similar logic into the vectorizer to handle these logical
and/or selects, treating them like and/or directly.
This fixes 60% performance regressions from code like the attached test
case.
