getModRefInfo() queries currently track whether the result is a
MustAlias on a best-effort basis. The only user of this functionality
is the optimized memory access type in MemorySSA -- which in turn
has no users. Given that this functionality has not found a user
since it was introduced five years ago (in D38862), I think we
should drop it again.
The context is that I'm working to separate FunctionModRefBehavior
to track mod/ref for different location kinds (like argmem or
inaccessiblemem) separately, and the fact that ModRefInfo also has
an unrelated Must flag makes this quite awkward, especially as this
means that NoModRef is not a zero value. If we want to retain the
functionality, I would probably split getModRefInfo() results into
a part that just contains the ModRef information, and a separate
part containing a (best-effort) AliasResult.

With opaque pointers, we cannot use the pointer element type to
determine the LocationSize for the AA query. Instead, -aa-eval
tests are now required to have an explicit load or store for any
pointer they want to compute alias results for, and the load/store
types are used to determine the location size.
This may affect ordering of results, and sorting within one result,
as the type is not considered part of the sorted string anymore.
To somewhat minimize the churn, printing still uses faux typed
pointer notation.
Summary:
Add an additional bit to ModRefInfo, ModRefInfo::Must, to be cleared for known must aliases.
Shift existing Mod/Ref/ModRef values to include an additional most
significant bit. Update wrappers that modify ModRefInfo values to
reflect the change.
Notes:
* ModRefInfo::Must is almost entirely cleared in the AAResults methods, the remaining changes are trying to preserve it.
* Only some small changes to make custom AA passes set ModRefInfo::Must (BasicAA).
* GlobalsModRef already declares a bit, who's meaning overlaps with the most significant bit in ModRefInfo (MayReadAnyGlobal). No changes to shift the value of MayReadAnyGlobal (see AlignedMap). FunctionInfo.getModRef() ajusts most significant bit so correctness is preserved, but the Must info is lost.
* There are cases where the ModRefInfo::Must is not set, e.g. 2 calls that only read will return ModRefInfo::NoModRef, though they may read from exactly the same location.

Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.
A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)
import fileinput
import sys
import re
pat = re.compile(r"((?:=|:|^)\s*load (?:atomic )?(?:volatile )?(.*?))(| addrspace\(\d+\) *)\*($| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$)")
for line in sys.stdin:
sys.stdout.write(re.sub(pat, r"\1, \2\3*\4", line))

versions of Bash. In addition, I can back out the change to the lit
built-in shell test runner to support this.
This should fix the majority of fallout on Darwin, but I suspect there
will be a few straggling issues.

by the right callsite; fix BasicAliasAnalysis to implement this.
Add AliasAnalysisEvaluator support for testing the two-callsite

interface needs implementations to be consistent, so any code which
wants to support different semantics must use a different interface.
It's not currently worthwhile to add a new interface for this new
concept.
Document that AliasAnalysis doesn't support cross-function queries.
