Currently the SCEVExpander tries to re-use existing casts, even if they
are not exactly at the insertion point it was asked to create the cast.
To do so in some case, it creates a new cast at the insertion point and
updates all users to use the new cast.
This behavior is problematic, because it changes the IR outside of the
instructions created during the expansion. Therefore we cannot
completely undo all changes made during expansion.
This re-use should be only an extra optimization, so only using the new
cast in the expanded instructions should not be a correctness issue.
There are many cases equivalent instructions are created during
expansion.
This patch also adjusts findInsertPointAfter to skip instructions
inserted during expansion. This enables re-using existing casts without
the renaming any uses, by picking a better insertion point.

On some occasions ReuseOrCreateCast may convert previously
expanded value to undefined. That value may be passed by
SCEVExpander as an argument to InsertBinop making IV chain
undefined.

As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.

In r267672, where the loop distribution pragma was introduced, I tried
it hard to keep the old behavior for opt: when opt is invoked
with -loop-distribute, it should distribute the loop (it's off by
default when ran via the optimization pipeline).
As MichaelZ has discovered this has the unintended consequence of
breaking a very common developer work-flow to reproduce compilations
using opt: First you print the pass pipeline of clang
with -debug-pass=Arguments and then invoking opt with the returned
arguments.
clang -debug-pass will include -loop-distribute but the pass is invoked
with default=off so nothing happens unless the loop carries the pragma.
While through opt (default=on) we will try to distribute all loops.
This changes opt's default to off as well to match clang. The tests are
modified to explicitly enable the transformation.

SCEV expansion can invalidate previously expanded values. For example
in SCEVExpander::ReuseOrCreateCast, if we already have the requested
cast value but it's not at the desired location, a new cast is inserted
and the old cast will be invalidated.
Therefore, when expanding the bounds for the pointers, a later entry can
invalidate the IR value for an earlier one. The fix is to store a value
handle rather than the value itself.
The newly added test has a more detailed description of how the bug
triggers.
This bug can have a negative but potentially highly variable performance
impact in Loop Distribution. Because one of the bound values was
invalidated and is an undef expression now, InstCombine is free to
transform the array overlap check:
Start0 <= End1 && Start1 <= End0
into:
Start0 <= End1
So depending on the runtime location of the arrays, we would detect a
conflict and fall back on the original loop of the versioned loop.
Also tested compile time with SPEC2006 LTO bc files.
