We introduces a new flag -polly-parallel and use it to annotate the for-nodes in
the isl ast that we want to execute thread parallel (e.g., using OpenMP). We
previously already emmitted openmp annotations, but we did this for various
kinds of parallel loops, including some which we can not run in parallel.
With this patch we now have three annotations:
1) #pragma known-parallel [reduction]
2) #pragma omp for
3) #pragma simd
meaning:
1) loop has no loop carried dependences
2) loop will be executed thread-parallel
3) loop can possibly be vectorized
This patch introduces 1) and reduces the use of 2) to only the cases where we
will actually generate thread parallel code.
It is in preparation of openmp code generation in our isl backend.
Legacy:
- We also have a command line option -enable-polly-openmp. This option controls
the OpenMP code generation in CLooG. It will become an alias of
-polly-parallel after the CLooG code generation has been dropped.

+ Introduced dependency type TYPE_TC_RED to represent the transitive closure
(& the reverse) of reduction dependences. These are used when we check for
reduction parallel loops.
+ Test cases including loop reversals and modulo schedules which compute
reductions in a alternated order.
