[PM] Create a separate library for high-level pass management code. This will provide the analogous replacements for the PassManagerBuilder and other code long term. This code is extracted from the opt tool currently, and I plan to extend it as I build up support for using the new pass manager in Clang and other places. Mailing this out for review in part to let folks comment on the terrible names here. A brief word about why I chose the names I did. The library is called "Passes" to try and make it clear that it is a high-level utility and where *all* of the passes come together and are registered in a common library. I didn't want it to be *limited* to a registry though, the registry is just one component. The class is a "PassBuilder" but this name I'm less happy with. It doesn't build passes in any traditional sense and isn't a Builder-style API at all. The class is a PassRegisterer or PassAdder, but neither of those really make a lot of sense. This class is responsible for constructing passes for registry in an analysis manager or for population of a pass pipeline. If anyone has a better name, I would love to hear it. The other candidate I looked at was PassRegistrar, but that doesn't really fit either. There is no register of all the passes in use, and so I think continuing the "registry" analog outside of the registry of pass *names* and *types* is a mistake. The objects themselves are just objects with the new pass manager. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D8054 llvm-svn: 231556

[PM/AA] Remove the last relics of the separate IPA library from LLVM, folding the code into the main Analysis library. There already wasn't much of a distinction between Analysis and IPA. A number of the passes in Analysis are actually IPA passes, and there doesn't seem to be any advantage to separating them. Moreover, it makes it hard to have interactions between analyses that are both local and interprocedural. In trying to make the Alias Analysis infrastructure work with the new pass manager, it becomes particularly awkward to navigate this split. I've tried to find all the places where we referenced this, but I may have missed some. I have also adjusted the C API to continue to be equivalently functional after this change.
