It's possible to determine the alignment of an alloca at compile-time.
Use this information to skip emitting some runtime alignment checks.
Testing: check-clang, check-ubsan.
This significantly reduces the amount of alignment checks we emit when
compiling X86ISelLowering.cpp. Here are the numbers from patched/unpatched
clangs based on r301361.
------------------------------------------
| Setup | # of alignment checks |
------------------------------------------
| unpatched, -O0 | 47195 |
| patched, -O0 | 30876 | (-34.6%)

The IR builder can constant-fold null checks if the pointer operand
points to a constant. If the "is-non-null" check is folded away to
"true", don't emit the null check + branch.
Testing: check-clang, check-ubsan.
This slightly reduces the amount of null checks we emit when compiling
X86ISelLowering.cpp. Here are the numbers from patched/unpatched clangs
based on r300371.
-------------------------------------
| Setup | # of null checks |
-------------------------------------
| unpatched, -O0 | 25251 |
| patched, -O0 | 23925 | (-5.3%)

Pointers to the start of an alloca are non-null, so we don't need to
emit runtime null checks for them.
Testing: check-clang, check-ubsan.
This significantly reduces the amount of null checks we emit when
compiling X86ISelLowering.cpp. Here are the numbers from patched /
unpatched clangs based on r300371.
-------------------------------------
| Setup | # of null checks |
-------------------------------------
| unpatched, -O0 | 45439 |
| patched, -O0 | 25251 | (-44.4%)

If a pointer is 1-byte aligned, there's no use in checking its
alignment. Somewhat surprisingly, ubsan can spend a significant amount
of time doing just that!
This loosely depends on D30283.
Testing: check-clang, check-ubsan, and a stage2 ubsan build.

This patch teaches ubsan to insert an alignment check for the 'this'
pointer at the start of each method/lambda. This allows clang to emit
significantly fewer alignment checks overall, because if 'this' is
aligned, so are its fields.
This is essentially the same thing r295515 does, but for the alignment
check instead of the null check. One difference is that we keep the
alignment checks on member expressions where the base is a DeclRefExpr.
There's an opportunity to diagnose unaligned accesses in this situation
(as pointed out by Eli, see PR32630).
Testing: check-clang, check-ubsan, and a stage2 ubsan build.
Along with the patch from D30285, this roughly halves the amount of
alignment checks we emit when compiling X86FastISel.cpp. Here are the
numbers from patched/unpatched clangs based on r298160.
------------------------------------------
| Setup | # of alignment checks |
------------------------------------------
| unpatched, -O0 | 24326 |
| patched, -O0 | 12717 | (-47.7%)
