If a function pointer is casted into a different type the resulting
expression can be a constant. If so, it can be used multiple times which
cannot be handled by the AbstractCallSite constructor alone. Instead, we
follow the cast expression uses now explicitly during the call site
traversal.
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.
A pointer is privatizeable if it can be replaced by a new, private one.
Privatizing pointer reduces the use count, interaction between unrelated
code parts. This is a first step towards replacing argument promotion.
While we can already handle recursion (unlike argument promotion!) we
are restricted to stack allocations for now because we do not analyze
the uses in the callee.

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.

Since the information is known we can simply use it at the call site.
This is especially useful for callbacks but also helps regular calls.
The test changes are mechanical.
This is the second step after D67871 to make use of abstract call sites.
In this patch the argument we associate with a abstract call site
argument can be the one in the callback callee instead of the one in the
callback broker.
Caveat: We cannot allow no-alias arguments for problematic callbacks:
As described in [1], adding no-alias (or restrict) to arguments could
break synchronization as the synchronization effect, e.g., a barrier,
does not "alias" with the pointer anymore. This disables no-alias
annotation for potentially problematic arguments until we implement the
fix described in [1].

Summary:
This patch moves the test cases related to Attributor to `Transforms/Attributor` folder.
We have used `Transforms/FunctionAttrs` as the primary folder for Attributor test but we need to change testing way now.
For the test cases which I think functionattrs doesn't infer anything something like (willreturn, nosync, value-simplify, h2s ..etc), I moved them with the command `git mv`.
For the test cases in which functoinattrs and attributor are tested, I copied the test to the folder and remove the check only used by functoinattrs.
