Chris Lattner 4d52e1e401 After unrolling our single basic block loop, fold it into the preheader and exit
block.  The primary motivation for doing this is that we can now unroll nested loops.

This makes a pretty big difference in some cases.  For example, in 183.equake,
we are now beating the native compiler with the CBE, and we are a lot closer
with LLC.

I'm now going to play around a bit with the unroll factor and see what effect
it really has.

Chris Lattner f2cc841619 Fix a bug: this does not preserve the CFG!
While we're at it, add support for updating loop information correctly.

Chris Lattner 946b255977 Initial checkin of a simple loop unroller. This pass is extremely basic and
limited.  Even in it's extremely simple state (it can only *fully* unroll single
basic block loops that execute a constant number of times), it already helps improve
performance a LOT on some benchmarks, particularly with the native code generators.
