Summary:
Support for this option is needed for building Linux kernel.
This is a very frequently requested feature by kernel developers.

GCC option description for -fdelete-null-pointer-checks:
This Assume that programs cannot safely dereference null pointers,
and that no code or data element resides at address zero.
-fno-delete-null-pointer-checks is the inverse of this implying that
null pointer dereferencing is not undefined.
This feature is implemented in LLVM IR in this CL as the function attribute
"null-pointer-is-valid"="true" in IR (Under review at D47894).
The CL updates several passes that assumed null pointer dereferencing is
undefined to not optimize when the "null-pointer-is-valid"="true"
attribute is present.

Summary:
Building MemorySSA gathers alias information for Defs/Uses.
Store and expose this information when optimizing uses (when building MemorySSA),
and when optimizing defs or updating uses (getClobberingMemoryAccess).
Current patch does not propagate alias information through MemoryPhis.

The only cases I can come up with where this invalidation needs to
happen is when there's a deletion somewhere. If we find more creative
test-cases, we can probably go with another approach mentioned on
PR36529.
Fixes PR36529.

Summary:
Check that the first access before one being tested is valid.
Before this patch, if there was no definition prior to the Use being tested,
the first time Iter was deferenced, it hit the sentinel.

clang-format (https://reviews.llvm.org/D33932) to keep primary headers
at the top and handle new utility headers like 'gmock' consistently with
other utility headers.
No other change was made. I did no manual edits, all of this is
clang-format.
This should allow other changes to have more clear and focused diffs,
and is especially motivated by moving some headers into more focused
libraries.

Analysis, it has Analysis passes, and once NewGVN is made an Analysis,
this removes the cross dependency from Analysis to Transform/Utils.
