This is a followup to D125754. We introduce two branches, one
before the unrolled loop and one before the epilogue (and similar
for the prologue case). The previous patch only froze the
condition on the first branch.
Rather than independently freezing the second condition, this patch
instead freezes TripCount and bases BECount on it. These are the
two quantities involved in the conditions, and this ensures that
both work on a consistent, non-poisonous trip count.

When performing runtime unrolling with multiple exits, one of the
earlier (non-latch) exits may exit the loop on the first iteration,
such that we never branch on the latch exit condition. As such, we
need to freeze the condition of the new branch that is introduced
before the loop, as it now executes unconditionally.

This is one of those wonderful "in theory X doesn't matter, but in practice is does" changes. In this particular case, we shift the IVs inserted by the runtime unroller to clamp iteration count of the loops* from decrementing to incrementing.
Why does this matter? A couple of reasons:
* SCEV doesn't have a native subtract node. Instead, all subtracts (A - B) are represented as A + -1 * B and drops any flags invalidated by such. As a result, SCEV is slightly less good at reasoning about edge cases involving decrementing addrecs than incrementing ones. (You can see this in the inferred flags in some of the test cases.)
* Other parts of the optimizer produce incrementing IVs, and they're common in idiomatic source language. We do have support for reversing IVs, but in general if we produce one of each, the pair will persist surprisingly far through the optimizer before being coalesced. (You can see this looking at nearby phis in the test cases.)
Note that if the hardware prefers decrementing (i.e. zero tested) loops, LSR should convert back immediately before codegen.
* Mostly irrelevant detail: The main loop of the prolog case is handled independently and will simple use the original IV with a changed start value. We could in theory use this scheme for all iteration clamping, but that's a larger and more invasive change.
The unrolling code was previously inserting new cloned blocks at the end of the function. The result of this with typical loop structures is that the new iterations are placed far from the initial iteration.
With unrolling, the general assumption is that the a) the loop is reasonable hot, and b) the first Count-1 copies of the loop are rarely (if ever) loop exiting. As such, placing Count-1 copies out of line is a fairly poor code placement choice. We'd much rather fall through into the hot (non-exiting) path. For code with branch profiles, later layout would fix this, but this may have a positive impact on non-PGO compiled code.
However, the real motivation for this change isn't performance. Its readability and human understanding. Having to jump around long distances in an IR file to trace an unrolled loop structure is error prone and tedious.
These intrinsics, not the icmp+select are the canonical form nowadays,
so we might as well directly emit them.
This should not cause any regressions, but if it does,
then then they would needed to be fixed regardless.
Note that this doesn't deal with `SCEVExpander::isHighCostExpansion()`,
but that is a pessimization, not a correctness issue.
Additionally, the non-intrinsic form has issues with undef,
see https://reviews.llvm.org/D88287#2587863
As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.

Summary:
This fixes the IDom for exit blocks and all blocks reachable from the exit blocks, when runtime unrolling under multiexit/exiting case.
We initially had a restrictive check that the IDom is only updated when
it is the header of the loop.
However, we also need to update the IDom to the correct one when the
IDom is any block within the original loop. See added test cases (which
fail dom tree verification without the patch).

Summary:
When we runtime unroll with multiple exit blocks, we also need to update the
immediate dominators of the immediate successors of the exit blocks.
