Summary:
We now collect all types of dependences including lexically forward
deps not just "interesting" ones.

Summary:
Before this change, we didn't use to collect forward dependences since
none of the current clients (LV, LDist) required them.
The motivation to also collect forward dependences is a new pass
LoopLoadElimination (LLE) which discovers store-to-load forwarding
opportunities across the loop's backedge. The pass uses both lexically
forward or backward loop-carried dependences to detect these
opportunities.
The new pass also analyzes loop-independent (forward) dependences since
they can conflict with the loop-carried dependences in terms of how the
data flows through memory.
The newly added test only covers loop-carried forward dependences
because loop-independent ones are currently categorized as NoDep. The
next patch will fix this.
The two patches were tested together for compile-time regression. None
found in LNT/SPEC.
Note that with this change LAA provides all dependences rather than just
"interesting" ones. A subsequent NFC patch will remove the now trivial
isInterestingDependence and rename the APIs.

Fix oversight in -analyze output. PtrRtCheck contains the pointers that
need to be checked against each other and not whether memchecks are
necessary.
For instance in the testcase PtrRtCheck has four elements but all
no-alias so no checking is necessary.
