There's a potential change in dereferenceability attribute semantics in the nearish future. See llvm-dev thread "RFC: Decomposing deref(N) into deref(N) + nofree" and D99100 for context.
This change simply adds appropriate attributes to tests to keep transform logic exercised under both old and new/proposed semantics. Note that for many of these cases, O3 would infer exactly these attributes on the test IR.
This change handles the idiomatic pattern of a dereferenceable object being passed to a call which can not free that memory. There's a couple other tests which need more one-off attention, they'll be handled in another change.
If we don't know anything about the alignment of a pointer, Align(1) is
still correct: all pointers are at least 1-byte aligned.
Included in this patch is a bugfix for an issue discovered during this
cleanup: pointers with "dereferenceable" attributes/metadata were
assumed to be aligned according to the type of the pointer. This
wasn't intentional, as far as I can tell, so Loads.cpp was fixed to
stop making this assumption. Frontends may need to be updated. I
updated clang's handling of C++ references, and added a release note for
this.

As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.

Summary:
Previously, in the NewPM pipeline, TailCallElim recalculates the DomTree when it modifies any instruction in the Function.
For example,
```
CallInst *CI = dyn_cast<CallInst>(&I);
...
CI->setTailCall();
Modified = true;
...
if (!Modified || ...)
return PreservedAnalyses::all();
```
After applying this patch, the DomTree only recalculates if needed (plus an extra insertEdge() + an extra deleteEdge() call).
When optimizing SQLite with `-passes="default<O3>"` pipeline of the newPM, the number of DomTree recalculation decreases by 6.2%, the number of nodes visited by DFS decreases by 2.9%. The time used by DomTree will decrease approximately 1%~2.5% after applying the patch.
Statistics:
```
Before the patch:
23010 dom-tree-stats - Number of DomTree recalculations
489264 dom-tree-stats - Number of nodes visited by DFS -- DomTree
After the patch:
21581 dom-tree-stats - Number of DomTree recalculations
475088 dom-tree-stats - Number of nodes visited by DFS -- DomTree
```

Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.
A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)
import fileinput
import sys
import re
pat = re.compile(r"((?:=|:|^)\s*load (?:atomic )?(?:volatile )?(.*?))(| addrspace\(\d+\) *)\*($| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$)")
for line in sys.stdin:
sys.stdout.write(re.sub(pat, r"\1, \2\3*\4", line))

by my refactoring of this code.
The method isSafeToLoadUnconditionally assumes that the load will
proceed with the preferred type alignment. Given that, it has to ensure
that the alloca or global is at least that aligned. It has always done
this historically when a datalayout is present, but has never checked it
when the datalayout is absent. When I refactored the code in r220156,
I exposed this path when datalayout was present and that turned the
latent bug into a patent bug.
This fixes the issue by just removing the special case which allows
folding things without datalayout. This isn't worth the complexity of
trying to tease apart when it is or isn't safe without actually knowing
the preferred alignment.
