Add support for opencl_unroll_hint attribute from OpenCL v2.0 s6.11.5.
Reusing most of metadata generation from CGLoopInfo helper class.
The code is based on Khronos OpenCL compiler:

This change adds the new unroll metadata "llvm.loop.unroll.enable" which directs
the optimizer to unroll a loop fully if the trip count is known at compile time, and
unroll partially if the trip count is not known at compile time. This differs from
"llvm.loop.unroll.full" which explicitly does not unroll a loop if the trip count is not
known at compile time
With this change "#pragma unroll" generates "llvm.loop.unroll.enable" rather than
"llvm.loop.unroll.full" metadata. This changes the semantics of "#pragma unroll" slightly
to mean "unroll aggressively (fully or partially)" rather than "unroll fully or not at all".
The motivating example for this change was some internal code with a loop marked
with "#pragma unroll" which only sometimes had a compile-time trip count depending
on template magic. When the trip count was a compile-time constant, everything works
as expected and the loop is fully unrolled. However, when the trip count was not a
compile-time constant the "#pragma unroll" explicitly disabled unrolling of the loop(!).
Removing "#pragma unroll" caused the loop to be unrolled partially which was desirable
from a performance perspective.

When ‘#pragma clang loop vectorize(assume_safety)’ was specified on a loop other loop hints were lost. The problem is that CGLoopInfo attaches metadata differently than EmitCondBrHints in CGStmt. For do-loops CGLoopInfo attaches metadata to the br in the body block and for while and for loops, the inc block. EmitCondBrHints on the other hand always attaches data to the br in the cond block. When specifying assume_safety CGLoopInfo emits an empty llvm.loop metadata shadowing the metadata in the cond block. Loop transformations like rotate and unswitch would then eliminate the cond block and its non-empty metadata.
This patch unifies both approaches for adding metadata and modifies the existing safety tests to include non-assume_safety loop hints.

Specifying #pragma clang loop vectorize(assume_safety) on a loop adds the
mem.parallel_loop_access metadata to each load/store operation in the loop. This
metadata tells loop access analysis (LAA) to skip memory dependency checking.

[Clang part]
These patches rename the loop unrolling and loop vectorizer metadata
such that they have a common 'llvm.loop.' prefix. Metadata name
changes:
llvm.vectorizer.* => llvm.loop.vectorizer.*
llvm.loopunroll.* => llvm.loop.unroll.*
This was a suggestion from an earlier review
(http://reviews.llvm.org/D4090) which added the loop unrolling
metadata.

It also adds a simple initial version of codegen for pragma omp simd (it will change in the future to support all the clauses).
