This patch allows invariant loads to be used in the SCoP description,
e.g., as loop bounds, conditions or in memory access functions.
First we collect "required invariant loads" during SCoP detection that
would otherwise make an expression we care about non-affine. To this
end a new level of abstraction was introduced before
SCEVValidator::isAffineExpr() namely ScopDetection::isAffine() and
ScopDetection::onlyValidRequiredInvariantLoads(). Here we can decide
if we want a load inside the region to be optimistically assumed
invariant or not. If we do, it will be marked as required and in the
SCoP generation we bail if it is actually not invariant. If we don't
it will be a non-affine expression as before. At the moment we
optimistically assume all "hoistable" (namely non-loop-carried) loads
to be invariant. This causes us to expand some SCoPs and dismiss them
later but it also allows us to detect a lot we would dismiss directly
if we would ask e.g., AliasAnalysis::canBasicBlockModify(). We also
allow potential aliases between optimistically assumed invariant loads
and other pointers as our runtime alias checks are sound in case the
loads are actually invariant. Together with the invariant checks this
combination allows to handle a lot more than LICM can.
The code generation of the invariant loads had to be extended as we
can now have dependences between parameters and invariant (hoisted)
loads as well as the other way around, e.g.,
test/Isl/CodeGen/invariant_load_parameters_cyclic_dependence.ll
First, it is important to note that we cannot have real cycles but
only dependences from a hoisted load to a parameter and from another
parameter to that hoisted load (and so on). To handle such cases we
materialize llvm::Values for parameters that are referred by a hoisted
load on demand and then materialize the remaining parameters. Second,
there are new kinds of dependences between hoisted loads caused by the
constraints on their execution. If a hoisted load is conditionally
executed it might depend on the value of another hoisted load. To deal
with such situations we sort them already in the ScopInfo such that
they can be generated in the order they are listed in the
Scop::InvariantAccesses list (see compareInvariantAccesses). The
dependences between hoisted loads caused by indirect accesses are
handled the same way as before.

This single option replaces -polly-detect-unprofitable and -polly-no-early-exit
and is supposed to be the only option that disables compile-time heuristics that
aim to bail out early on scops that are believed to not benefit from Polly
optimizations.

These flags are now always passed to all tests and need to be disabled if
not needed. Disabling these flags, rather than passing them to almost all
tests, significantly simplfies our RUN: lines.

Polly's profitability heuristic saves compile time by skipping trivial scops or
scops were we know no good optimization can be applied. For almost all our tests
this heuristic makes little sense as we aim for minimal test cases when testing
functionality. Hence, in almost all cases this heuristic is better be disabled.
In preparation of disabling Polly's compile time heuristic by default in the
test suite we first explicitly enable it in the couple of test cases that really
use it (or run with/without heuristic side-by-side).

Instead of having two separate options
-polly-detect-scops-in-functions-without-loops and
-polly-detect-scops-in-regions-without-loops we now just use
-polly-detect-unprofitable to force the detection of scops ignoring any compile
time saving bailout heuristics.

I ran the script from r246327 and it touched all the right files;
committing now to hopefully right the bots, but if my check-polly
doesn't come back clean I'll keep looking.

I just learned that target triples prevent test cases to be run on other
architectures. Polly test cases are until now sufficiently target independent
to not require any target triples. Hence, we drop them.

This will allow the ScopDetection to detect non-affine regions that
contain loops. All loops contained will be collected and are
accessible to later passes in order to adjust the access functions.
As the loops are non-affine and will not be part of the polyhedral
representation later, all accesses that are variant in these loops
have to be over approximated as non-affine accesses. They are
therefore handled the same way as other non-affine accesses.
Additionally, we do not count non-affine loops for the profitability
heuristic, thus a region with only a non-affine loop will only be
detected if the general detection of loop free regions is enabled.

Scops that only read seem generally uninteresting and scops that only write are
most likely initializations where there is also little to optimize. To not
waste compile time we bail early.
