At the moment, the primary induction variable for the vector loop is
created as part of the skeleton creation. This is tied to creating the
vector loop latch outside of VPlan. This prevents from modeling the
*whole* vector loop in VPlan, which in turn is required to model
preheader and exit blocks in VPlan as well.
This patch introduces a new recipe VPCanonicalIVPHIRecipe to represent the
primary IV in VPlan and CanonicalIVIncrement{NUW} opcodes for
VPInstruction to model the increment.
This allows us to partly retire createInductionVariable. At the moment,
a bit of patching up is done after executing all blocks in the plan.

The basic idea to this is that a) having a single canonical type makes CSE easier, and b) many of our transforms are inconsistent about which types we end up with based on visit order.
I'm restricting this to constants as for non-constants, we'd have to decide whether the simplicity was worth extra instructions. For constants, there are no extra instructions.
We chose the canonical type as i64 arbitrarily. We might consider changing this to something else in the future if we have cause.

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.

The scalarization overhead was set deliberately high for MVE, whilst the
codegen was new. It helps protect us against the negative ramifications
of mixing scalar and vector instructions. This decreases that,
especially for floating point where the cost of extracting/inserting
lane elements can be low. For integer the cost is still fairly high due
to the cross-register-bank copy, but is no longer n^2 in the length of
the vector.
In general, this will decrease the cost of scalarizing floats and long
integer vectors. i64 increase in cost, having a high cost before and
after this patch. For floats this allows up to start doing things like
vectorizing fdiv instructions, even if they are scalarized.

Temporarily revert commit 8b1c4e310c.
After 8b1c4e310c the compile-time for `MultiSource/Benchmarks/MiBench/consumer-lame`
dramatically increases with -O3 & LTO, causing issues for builders with
that configuration.
I filed PR48553 with a smallish reproducer that shows a 10-100x compile
time increase.
... so just ensure that we pass DomTreeUpdater it into it.
Fixes DomTree preservation for a large number of tests,
all of which are marked as such so that they do not regress.
If we have two unknown sizes and one GEP operand and one non-GEP
operand, then we currently simply return MayAlias. The comment says
we can't do anything useful ... but we can! We can still check that
the underlying objects are different (and do so for the GEP-GEP case).
To reduce the compile-time impact, this a) checks this early, before
doing the relatively expensive GEP decomposition that will not be
used and b) doesn't do the check if the other operand is a phi or
select. In that case, the phi/select will already recurse, so this
would just do two slightly different recursive walks that arrive at
the same roots.
Compile-time is still a bit of a mixed bag: https://llvm-compile-time-tracker.com/compare.php?from=624af932a808b363a888139beca49f57313d9a3b&to=845356e14adbe651a553ed11318ddb5e79a24bcd&stat=instructions
On average this is a small improvement, but sqlite with ThinLTO has
a 0.5% regression (lencod has a 1% improvement).
The BasicAA test case checks this by using two memsets with unknown
size. However, the more interesting case where this is useful is
the LoopVectorize test case, as analysis of accesses in loops tends
to always us unknown sizes.

We have been running tests/benchmarks downstream with tail-predication enabled
for some time now and this behaves as expected: we are not aware of any
correctness issues, and this performs better across the board than with
tail-predication disabled. Time to flip the switch!

MVE Gather scatter codegeneration is looking a lot better than it used
to, but still has some issues. The instructions we currently model as 1
cycle per element, which is a bit low for some cases. Increasing the
cost by the MVECostFactor brings them in-line with our other instruction
costs. This will have the effect of only generating then when the extra
benefit is more likely to overcome some of the issues. Notably in
running out of registers and vectorizing loops that could otherwise be
SLP vectorized.
In the short-term whilst we look at other ways of dealing with those
more directly, we can increase the costs of gathers to make them more
likely to be beneficial when created.

This patch enables the LoopVectorizer to build a phi of pointer
type and provide the vector loads and stores with vector type
getelementptrs built from the pointer induction variable, which
produces much less instructions than the previous approach of
creating scalar getelementpointers and glue them together to a
vector.
