David Blaikie a79ac14fa6 [opaque pointer type] Add textual IR support for explicit type parameter to load instruction
Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.

A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)

import fileinput
import sys
import re

pat = re.compile(r"((?:=|:|^)\s*load (?:atomic )?(?:volatile )?(.*?))(| addrspace\(\d+\) *)\*($| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$)")

for line in sys.stdin:
  sys.stdout.write(re.sub(pat, r"\1, \2\3*\4", line))

Duncan P. N. Exon Smith fd5c553f54 GVN: Enable value forwarding for calloc
Enable value forwarding for loads from `calloc()` without an intervening
store.

This change extends GVN to handle the following case:

    %1 = tail call noalias i8* @calloc(i64 1, i64 4)
    %2 = bitcast i8* %1 to i32*
    ; This load is trivially constant zero
    %3 = load i32* %2, align 4

This is analogous to the handling for `malloc()` in the same places.
`malloc()` returns `undef`; `calloc()` returns a zero value.  Note that
it is correct to return zero even for out of bounds GEPs since the
result of such a GEP would be undefined.

Patch by Philip Reames!
