When the Attributor was created the test update scripts were not well
suited to deal with the challenges of IR attribute checking. This
partially improved.
Since then we also added three additional configurations that need
testing; in total we now have the following four:
{ TUNIT, CGSCC } x { old pass manager (OPM), new pass manager (NPM) }
Finally, the number of developers and tests grew rapidly (partially due
to the addition of ArgumentPromotion and IPConstantProp tests), which
resulted in tests only being run in some configurations, different
prefixes being used, and different "styles" of checks being used.
Due to the above reasons I believed we needed to take another look at
the test update scripts. While we started to use them, via UTC_ARGS:
--enable/disable, the other problems remained. To improve the testing
situation for *all* configurations, to simplify future updates to the
test, and to help identify subtle effects of future changes, we now use
the test update scripts for (almost) all Attributor tests.
An exhaustive prefix list minimizes the number of check lines and makes
it easy to identify and compare configurations.
Tests have been adjusted in the process but we tried to keep their
intend unchanged.

Query AAValueSimplify on pointers in memory accessing instructions to take
advantage of the constant propagation (or any other value simplification) of such values.
Use DL & ABI information for better alignment deduction, e.g., if a type
is accessed and the ABI specifies an alignment requirement for such an
access we can use it. This is based on a patch by @lebedev.ri and
inspired by getBaseAlign in Loads.cpp.
Depends on D76673.

We are often interested in an assumed constant and sometimes it has to
be an integer constant. Before we only looked for the latter, now we can
ask for either.
We used coarse-grained liveness before, thus we looked if the
instruction was executed, but we did not use fine-grained liveness,
hence if the instruction was needed or could be deleted even if the
surrounding ones are live. This patches introduces this level of
liveness checks together with other liveness queries, e.g., for uses.
For more control we enforce that all liveness queries go through the
Attributor.
Test have been adjusted to reflect the changes or augmented to prevent
deletion of the parts we want to check.

If we have a replacement for a value, via AAValueSimplify, the original
value will lose all its uses. Thus, as long as a value is simplified we
can skip the uses in checkForAllUses, given that these uses are
transitive uses for the simplified version and will therefore affect the
simplified version as necessary.
Since this allowed us to remove calls without side-effects and a known
return value, we need to make sure not to eliminate `musttail` calls.
Those we keep around, or later remove the entire `musttail` call chain.
Summary:
New `@test13` in `Attributor/align.ll` is the main motivation - `null` pointer
really does not limit our alignment knowledge, in fact it is fully aligned
since it has no bits set.
Here we don't special-case `null` pointer because it is somewhat controversial
to add one more place where we enforce that `null` pointer is zero,
but instead we do the more general thing of trying to perform constant-fold
of pointer constant to an integer, and perform alignment inferrment on that.

Especially for callbacks, annotating the call site arguments is
important. Doing so exposed a too strong dependence of AAMemoryBehavior
on AANoCapture since we handle the case of potentially captured pointers
explicitly.
The changes to the tests are all mechanical.
Summary: This patch makes `AAValueSimplify` use `changeUsesAfterManifest` in `manifest`. This will invoke simple folding after the manifest.
