After having generated the code for a ScopStmt, we run a simple dead-code
elimination that drops all instructions that are known to be and remain unused.
Until this change, we only considered instructions for dead-code elimination, if
they have a corresponding instruction in the original BB that belongs to
ScopStmt. However, when generating code we do not only copy code from the BB
belonging to a ScopStmt, but also generate code for operands referenced from BB.
After this change, we now also considers code for dead code elimination, which
does not have a corresponding instruction in BB.
This fixes a bug in Polly-ACC where such dead-code referenced CPU code from
within a GPU kernel, which is possible as we do not guarantee that all variables
that are used in known-dead-code are moved to the GPU.

Otherwise, we would try to re-optimize them with Polly-ACC and possibly even
generate kernels that try to offload themselves, which does not work as the
GPURuntime is not available on the accelerator and also does not make any
sense.

This change introduces the actual compute code in the GPU kernels. To ensure
all values referenced from the statements in the GPU kernel are indeed available
we scan all ScopStmts in the GPU kernel for references to llvm::Values that
are not yet covered by already modeled outer loop iterators, parameters, or
array base pointers and also pass these additional llvm::Values to the
GPU kernel.
For arrays used in the GPU kernel we introduce a new ScopArrayInfo object, which
is referenced by the newly generated access functions within the GPU kernel and
which is used to help with code generation.

Initialize the list of references to a GPU array to ensure that the arrays that
need to be passed to kernel calls are computed correctly. Furthermore, the very
same information is also necessary to compute synchronization correctly. As the
functionality to compute these references is already available, what is left for
us to do is only to connect the necessary functionality to compute array
reference information.

Create LLVM-IR for all host-side control flow of a given GPU AST. We implement
this by introducing a new GPUNodeBuilder class derived from IslNodeBuilder. The
IslNodeBuilder will take care of generating all general-purpose ast nodes, but
we provide our own createUser implementation to handle the different GPU
specific user statements. For now, we just skip any user statement and only
generate a host-code sceleton, but in subsequent commits we will add handling of
normal ScopStmt's performing computations, kernel calls, as well as host-device
data transfers. We will also introduce run-time check generation and LICM in
subsequent commits.
