For uniform instructions, we're only required to generate a scalar value for
the first vector lane of each unroll iteration. Thus, if we have a reverse
interleaved group, computing the member index off the scalar GEP corresponding
to the last vector lane of its pointer operand technically makes the GEP
non-uniform. We should compute the member index off the first scalar GEP
instead.
I've added the updated member index computation to the existing reverse
interleaved group test.

The interleaved access analysis currently assumes that the inserted run-time
pointer aliasing checks ensure the absence of dependences that would prevent
its instruction reordering. However, this is not the case.
Issues can arise from how code generation is performed for interleaved groups.
For a load group, all loads in the group are essentially moved to the location
of the first load in program order, and for a store group, all stores in the
group are moved to the location of the last store. For groups having members
involved in a dependence relation with any other instruction in the loop, this
reordering can violate the dependence.
This patch teaches the interleaved access analysis how to avoid breaking such
dependences, and should fix PR27626.
An assumption of the original analysis was that the accesses had been collected
in "program order". The analysis was then simplified by visiting the accesses
bottom-up. However, this ordering was never guaranteed for anything other than
single basic block loops. Thus, this patch also enforces the desired ordering.

We previously disallowed interleaved load groups that may cause us to
speculatively access memory out-of-bounds (r261331). We did this by ensuring
each load group had an access corresponding to the first and last member.
Instead of bailing out for these interleaved groups, this patch enables us to
peel off the last vector iteration, ensuring that we execute at least one
iteration of the scalar remainder loop. This solution was proposed in the
review of the previous patch.

Summary:
If we don't have the first and last access of an interleaved load group,
the first and last wide load in the loop can do an out of bounds
access. Even though we discard results from speculative loads,
this can cause problems, since it can technically generate page faults
(or worse).
We now discard interleaved load groups that don't have the first and
load in the group.

Interleaved memory accesses are grouped and vectorized into vector load/store and shufflevector.
E.g. for (i = 0; i < N; i+=2) {
a = A[i]; // load of even element
b = A[i+1]; // load of odd element
... // operations on a, b, c, d
A[i] = c; // store of even element
A[i+1] = d; // store of odd element
}
The loads of even and odd elements are identified as an interleave load group, which will be transfered into vectorized IRs like:
%wide.vec = load <8 x i32>, <8 x i32>* %ptr
%vec.even = shufflevector <8 x i32> %wide.vec, <8 x i32> undef, <4 x i32> <i32 0, i32 2, i32 4, i32 6>
%vec.odd = shufflevector <8 x i32> %wide.vec, <8 x i32> undef, <4 x i32> <i32 1, i32 3, i32 5, i32 7>
The stores of even and odd elements are identified as an interleave store group, which will be transfered into vectorized IRs like:
%interleaved.vec = shufflevector <4 x i32> %vec.even, %vec.odd, <8 x i32> <i32 0, i32 4, i32 1, i32 5, i32 2, i32 6, i32 3, i32 7>
store <8 x i32> %interleaved.vec, <8 x i32>* %ptr
This optimization is currently disabled by defaut. To try it by adding '-enable-interleaved-mem-accesses=true'.
