DemandedBits and BDCE currently only support scalar integers. This
patch extends them to also handle vector integer operations. In this
case bits are not tracked for individual vector elements, instead a
bit is demanded if it is demanded for any of the elements. This matches
the behavior of computeKnownBits in ValueTracking and
SimplifyDemandedBits in InstCombine.
The getDemandedBits() method can now only be called on instructions that
have integer or vector of integer type. Previously it could be called on
any sized instruction (even if it was not particularly useful). The size
of the return value is now always the scalar size in bits (while
previously it was the type size in bits).

Summary:
This patch prevents MergeICmps to performn the transformation if the address operand GEP of the load instruction has a use outside of the load's parent block. Without this patch, compiler crashes with the given test case because the use of `%first.i` is still around when the basic block is erased from https://github.com/llvm-mirror/llvm/blob/master/lib/Transforms/Scalar/MergeICmps.cpp#L620. I think checking `isUsedOutsideOfBlock` with `GEP` is the original intention of the code, as the checking for `LoadI` is already performed in the same function.
This patch is incomplete though, as this makes the pass overly conservative and fails the test `tuple-four-int8.ll`. I believe what needs to be done is checking if GEP has a use outside of block that is not the part of "Comparisons" chain. Submit the patch as of now to prevent compiler crash.

Since I was requested to do all of this with post-commit review, this is

This patch makes LocationSize into an actual type that wraps a uint64_t;
users are required to call getValue() in order to get the size now. If
the LocationSize has an Unknown size (e.g. if LocSize ==
MemoryLocation::UnknownSize), getValue() will assert.
This also adds DenseMap specializations for LocationInfo, which required
taking two more values from the set of values LocationInfo can
represent. Hence, heavy users of multi-exabyte arrays or structs may
observe slightly lower-quality code as a result of this change.
The intent is for getValue()s to be very close to a corresponding
hasValue() (which is often spelled `!= MemoryLocation::UnknownSize`).
Sadly, small diff context appears to crop that out sometimes, and the
last change in DSE does require a bit of nonlocal reasoning about
control-flow. :/
This also removes an assert, since it's now redundant with the assert in
getValue().

LocationSize an actual type, which you have to call .getValue() on in
order to get at the uint64_t inside. Hence, this change refactors code
so that:
- we only need to call the soon-to-come getValue() once in most cases,
and
- said call to getValue() happens very closely to a piece of code that
checks if the LocationSize has a value (e.g. if it's != UnknownSize).

In r339636 the alias analysis rules were changed with regards to tail calls
and byval arguments. Previously, tail calls were assumed not to alias
allocas from the current frame. This has been updated, to not assume this
for arguments with the byval attribute.
This patch aligns TailCallElim with the new rule. Tail marking can now be
more aggressive and mark more calls as tails, e.g.:
define void @test() {
%f = alloca %struct.foo
call void @bar(%struct.foo* byval %f)
ret void
}
define void @test2(%struct.foo* byval %f) {
call void @bar(%struct.foo* byval %f)
ret void
}
define void @test3(%struct.foo* byval %f) {
%agg.tmp = alloca %struct.foo
%0 = bitcast %struct.foo* %agg.tmp to i8*
%1 = bitcast %struct.foo* %f to i8*
call void @llvm.memcpy.p0i8.p0i8.i64(i8* %0, i8* %1, i64 40, i1 false)
call void @bar(%struct.foo* byval %agg.tmp)
ret void
}
The problematic case where a byval parameter is captured by a call is still
handled correctly, and will not be marked as a tail (see PR7272).
