LSR has gradually been improved to more aggressively reuse existing code, particularly existing phi cycles. This exposed problems with the SCEVExpander's sloppy treatment of its insertion point. I applied some rigor to the insertion point problem that will hopefully avoid an endless bug cycle in this area. Changes:
- Always used properlyDominates to check safe code hoisting.
- The insertion point provided to SCEV is now considered a lower bound. This is usually a block terminator or the use itself. Under no cirumstance may SCEVExpander insert below this point.
- LSR is reponsible for finding a "canonical" insertion point across expansion of different expressions.
- Robust logic to determine whether IV increments are in "expanded" form and/or can be safely hoisted above some insertion point.
Fixes PR11783: SCEVExpander assert.

These heuristics are sufficient for enabling IV chains by
default. Performance analysis has been done for i386, x86_64, and
thumbv7. The optimization is rarely important, but can significantly
speed up certain cases by eliminating spill code within the
loop. Unrolled loops are prime candidates for IV chains. In many
cases, the final code could still be improved with more target
specific optimization following LSR. The goal of this feature is for
LSR to make the best choice of induction variables.
Instruction selection may not completely take advantage of this
feature yet. As a result, there could be cases of slight code size
increase.
Code size can be worse on x86 because it doesn't support postincrement
addressing. In fact, when chains are formed, you may see redundant
address plus stride addition in the addressing mode. GenerateIVChains
tries to compensate for the common cases.
On ARM, code size increase can be mitigated by using postincrement
addressing, but downstream codegen currently misses some opportunities.

Just because we're dealing with a GEP doesn't mean we can assert the
SCEV has a pointer type. The fix is simply to ignore the SCEV pointer
type, which we really didn't need.

This avoids unnecessary expansion of expressions and allows the SCEV
expander to work on expression DAGs, not just trees.
Fixes PR11090.

IVs.
Indvars previously chose randomly between congruent IVs. Now it will
bias the decision toward IVs that SCEVExpander likes to create. This
was not done to fix any problem, it's just a welcome side effect of
factoring code.

Added the self-wrap flag for SCEV::AddRecExpr.
A slew of temporary FIXMEs indicate the intention of the no-self-wrap flag
without changing behavior in this revision.

it inserted rather than using LoopInfo::getCanonicalInductionVariable to
rediscover it, since that doesn't work on non-canonical loops. This fixes
infinite recurrsion on such loops; PR7562.
