Complemantary to the assumption outliner prototype in D71692, this patch
shows how we could simplify the code emitted for an alignemnt
assumption. The generated code is smaller, less fragile, and it makes it
easier to recognize the additional use as a "assumption use".
As mentioned in D71692 and on the mailing list, we could adopt this
scheme, and similar schemes for other patterns, without adopting the
assumption outlining.

Assume bundle can have more than one entry with the same name,
but at least AlignmentFromAssumptionsPass::extractAlignmentInfo() uses
getOperandBundle("align"), which internally assumes that it isn't the
case, and happily crashes otherwise.
Minimal reduced reproducer: run `opt -alignment-from-assumptions` on
target datalayout = "e-m:e-p270:32:32-p271:32:32-p272:64:64-i64:64-f80:128-n8:16:32:64-S128"
target triple = "x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu"
%0 = type { i64, %1*, i8*, i64, %2, i32, %3*, i8* }
%1 = type opaque
%2 = type { i8, i8, i16 }
%3 = type { i32, i32, i32, i32 }
; Function Attrs: nounwind
define i32 @f(%0* noalias nocapture readonly %arg, %0* noalias %arg1) local_unnamed_addr #0 {
bb:
call void @llvm.assume(i1 true) [ "align"(%0* %arg, i64 8), "align"(%0* %arg1, i64 8) ]
ret i32 0
}
; Function Attrs: nounwind willreturn
declare void @llvm.assume(i1) #1
attributes #0 = { nounwind "reciprocal-estimates"="none" }
attributes #1 = { nounwind willreturn }
This is what we'd have with -mllvm -enable-knowledge-retention
This reverts commit c95ffadb24.

Summary:
Much like with the previous patch (D73005) with `AssumeAlignedAttr`
handling, results in mildly more readable IR,
and will improve test coverage in upcoming patch.
Note that in `AllocAlignAttr`'s case, there is no requirement
for that alignment parameter to end up being an I-C-E.

Summary:
This should be mostly NFC - we still lower the same alignment
knowledge to the IR. The main reasoning here is that
this somewhat improves readability of IR like this,
and will improve test coverage in upcoming patch.
Even though the alignment is guaranteed to always be an I-C-E,
we don't always materialize it as llvm's Alignment Attribute because:
1. There may be a non-zero offset
2. We may be sanitizing for alignment
Note that if there already was an IR alignment attribute
on return value, we union them, and thus the alignment
only ever rises.
Also, there is a second relevant clang attribute `AllocAlignAttr`,
so that is why `AbstractAssumeAlignedAttrEmitter` is templated.

Summary:
We shouldn't be just giving up if we find one of them
(like we currently do with `AssumeAlignedAttr`),
we should emit them all.
As the tests show, even if we materialized good knowledge
from `__attribute__((assume_aligned(32)`, it doesn't mean
`__attribute__((alloc_align([...])))` info won't be useful.
It might be, but that isn't given.
