Summary:
This change is part of step five in the series of changes to remove alignment argument from
memcpy/memmove/memset in favour of alignment attributes. In particular, this changes the
CodeGenPrepare pass to be more aggressive in improving the source and destination alignments
of memcpy/memmove/memset by exploiting our new ability to record independent alignments
for each argument.
Steps:
Step 1) Remove alignment parameter and create alignment parameter attributes for
memcpy/memmove/memset. ( rL322965, rC322964, rL322963 )
Step 2) Expand the IRBuilder API to allow creation of memcpy/memmove with differing
source and dest alignments. ( rL323597 )
Step 3) Update Clang to use the new IRBuilder API. ( rC323617 )
Step 4) Update Polly to use the new IRBuilder API. ( rL323618 )
Step 5) Update LLVM passes that create memcpy/memmove calls to use the new IRBuilder API,
and those that use use MemIntrinsicInst::[get|set]Alignment() to use [get|set]DestAlignment()
and [get|set]SourceAlignment() instead. ( rL323886 )
Step 6) Remove the single-alignment IRBuilder API for memcpy/memmove, and the
MemIntrinsicInst::[get|set]Alignment() methods.

The current way that trivial addressing modes are detected incorrectly thinks
that null pointers are non-trivial, leading to an infinite loop where we keep
duplicating the same select. Fix this by aware of null when deciding if an
addressing mode is trivial.

This patch extends the recent work in optimizeMemoryInst to make it able to
combine more ExtAddrMode fields than just the BaseReg.
This fixes some benchmark regressions introduced by r309397, where GVN PRE is
hoisting a getelementptr such that it can no longer be combined into the
addressing mode of the load or store that uses it.

This patch disables the handling of selects in optimization
extensing scope of optimizeMemoryInst.
The optimization itself is disable by default.
The idea here is just to switch optimiztion level step by step.
Specifically, first optimization will be enabled only for Phi nodes,
then select instructions will be added.
In case someone will complain about perfromance it will be easier to
detect what part of optimizations is responsible for that.

There are several requirements that ended up with this design;
1. Matching bitreversals is too heavyweight for InstCombine and doesn't really need to be done so early.
2. Bitreversals and byteswaps are very related in their matching logic.
3. We want to implement support for matching more advanced bswap/bitreverse patterns like partial bswaps/bitreverses.
4. Bswaps are best matched early in InstCombine.
The result of these is that a new utility function is created in Transforms/Utils/Local.h that can be configured to search for bswaps, bitreverses or both. InstCombine uses it to find only bswaps, CGP uses it to find only bitreversals.
We can then extend the matching logic in one place only.
