Summary:
Memory Dependence Analysis was limited to return only local dependencies
for invariant.group handling. Now it returns NonLocal when it finds it
and then by asking getNonLocalPointerDependency we get found dep.
Thanks to this we are able to devirtualize loops!
void indirect(A &a, int n) {
for (int i = 0 ; i < n; i++)
a.foo();
}
void test(int n) {
A a;
indirect(a);
}
After inlining a.foo() will be changed to direct call, even if foo and A::A()
is external (but only if vtable definition is be available).

Summary:
By using stripPointerCasts we can get to the root
value and then walk down the bitcast graph

Summary:
gep 0, 0 is equivalent to bitcast. LLVM canonicalizes it
to getelementptr because it make SROA can then handle it.
Simple case like
void g(A &a) {
z(a);
if (glob)
a.foo();
}
void testG() {
A a;
g(a);
}
was not devirtualized with -fstrict-vtable-pointers because luck of
handling for gep 0 in Memory Dependence Analysis

The most important part required to make clang
devirtualization works ( ͡°͜ʖ ͡°).
The code is able to find non local dependencies, but unfortunatelly
because the caller can only handle local dependencies, I had to add
some restrictions to look for dependencies only in the same BB.
