Only when load-hoisted we can be sure the base pointer is invariant
during the SCoP's execution. Most of the time it would be added to
the required hoists for the alias checks anyway, except with
-polly-ignore-aliasing, -polly-use-runtime-alias-checks=0 or if
AliasAnalysis is already sure it doesn't alias with anything
(for instance if there is no other pointer to alias with).
Two more parts in Polly assume that this load-hoisting took place:
- setNewAccessRelation() which contains an assert which tests this.
- BlockGenerator which would use to the base ptr from the original
code if not load-hoisted (if the access expression is regenerated)

When deriving the range of valid values of a scalar evolution expression might
be a range [12, 8), where the upper bound is smaller than the lower bound and
where the range is expected to possibly wrap around. We theoretically could
model such a range as a union of two non-wrapping ranges, but do not do this
as of yet. Instead, we just do not derive any bounds. Before this change,
we could have obtained bounds where the maximal possible value is strictly
smaller than the minimal possible value, which is incorrect and also caused
assertions during scop modeling.
