Duncan Sands 289f59f233 Remove alloca tracking from nocapture analysis. Not only
was it not very helpful, it was also wrong!  The problem
is shown in the testcase: the alloca might be passed to
a nocapture callee which dereferences it and returns the
original pointer.  But because it was a nocapture call we
think we don't need to track its uses, but we do.

Duncan Sands b193a37cd3 When calculating 'nocapture' argument attributes, allow
the argument to be stored to an alloca by tracking uses
of the alloca.  This occurs 4 times (out of 7121, 0.05%)
in MultiSource/Applications, so may not be worth it.  On
the other hand, it is easy to do and fairly cheap.  The
functions it helps are: W_addcom and W_addlit in spiff;
process_args (argv) in d (make_dparser); ercPixConcealIMB
in JM/ldecod.
