It's possible that some function can load and store the same
variable using the same constant expression:
store %Derived* @foo, %Derived** bitcast (%Base** @bar to %Derived**)
%42 = load %Derived*, %Derived** bitcast (%Base** @bar to %Derived**)
The bitcast expression was mistakenly cached while processing loads,
and never examined later when processing store. This caused @bar to
be mistakenly treated as read-only variable. See load-store-caching.ll.

This reverts r365040 (git commit 5cacb91475)
Speculatively reverting, since this appears to have broken check-lld on
Linux. Partial analysis in https://crbug.com/981168.

It looks like this isn't necessary (in any tests I've done, it results
in the global being described with no location or value in the imported
side - while it's still fully described in the place it's imported from)
& results in significant/pathological debug info growth to home these
location-less global variable descriptions on the import side.
This is a rather pressing/important issue to address - this regressed
executable size for one example I'm looking at by 15%, object size is probably
similar though I haven't measured it, and a 22x increase in the number of CUs
in the cu_index in split DWARF DWP files, creating a similarly large regression
in the time it takes llvm-symbolizer to run on such binaries.

An attempt to recommit r346584 after failure on OSX build bot.
Fixed cache key computation in ThinLTOCodeGenerator and added
test case

This patch allows internalising globals if all accesses to them
(from live functions) are from non-volatile load instructions
