The code we had isSafeToLoadUnconditionally was blatantly wrong. This function takes a "Size" argument which is supposed to describe the span loaded from. Instead, the code use the size of the pointer passed (which may be unrelated!) and only checks that span. For any Size > LoadSize, this can and does lead to miscompiles.
Worse, the generic code just a few lines above correctly handles the cases which *are* valid. So, let's delete said code.
Removing this code revealed two issues:
1) As noted by jdoerfert the removed code incorrectly handled external globals. The test update in SROA is to stop testing incorrect behavior.
2) SROA was confusing bytes and bits, but this wasn't obvious as the Size parameter was being essentially ignored anyway. Fixed.

[SROA] Enhance SROA to handle `addrspacecast`ed allocas
- Fix typo in original change
- Add additional handling to ensure all return pointers are properly
casted.
Summary:
- After `addrspacecast` is allowed to be eliminated in SROA, the
adjusting of storage pointer (from `alloca) needs to handle the
potential different address spaces between the storage pointer (from
alloca) and the pointer being used.

There is a circular dependency between SROA and InferAddressSpaces
today that requires running both multiple times in order to be able to
eliminate all simple allocas and addrspacecasts. InferAddressSpaces
can't remove addrspacecasts when written to memory, and SROA helps
move pointers out of memory.
This should avoid inserting new commuting addrspacecasts with GEPs,
since there are unresolved questions about pointer wrapping between
different address spaces.
For now, don't replace volatile operations that don't match the alloca
addrspace, as it would change the address space of the access. It may
be still OK to insert an addrspacecast from the new alloca, but be
more conservative for now.
