Summary:
By using stripPointerCasts we can get to the root
value and then walk down the bitcast graph

Summary: LLVM's non-standard notion of phi nodes means we can't both try to substitute for undef in phi nodes *and* use phi nodes as leaders all the time. This changes NewGVN to use the same semantics as SimplifyPHINode to decide which phi nodes are equivalent.

Summary:
gep 0, 0 is equivalent to bitcast. LLVM canonicalizes it
to getelementptr because it make SROA can then handle it.
Simple case like
void g(A &a) {
z(a);
if (glob)
a.foo();
}
void testG() {
A a;
g(a);
}
was not devirtualized with -fstrict-vtable-pointers because luck of
handling for gep 0 in Memory Dependence Analysis

The current GVN algorithm folds unconditional branches to, it claims,
expose more PRE oportunities. The folding, if really needed,
(which is not sure, as it's not really proved it improves analysis)
can be done by an earlier cleanup pass instead of GVN itself.

The code have been developed by Daniel Berlin over the years, and
the new implementation goal is that of addressing shortcomings of
the current GVN infrastructure, i.e. long compile time for large
testcases, lack of phi predication, no load/store value numbering
etc...
The current code just implements the "core" GVN algorithm, although
other pieces (load coercion, phi handling, predicate system) are
already implemented in a branch out of tree. Once the core is stable,
we'll start adding pieces on top of the base framework.
The test currently living in test/Transform/NewGVN are a copy
of the ones in GVN, with proper `XFAIL` (missing features in NewGVN).
A flag will be added in a future commit to enable NewGVN, so that
interested parties can exercise this code easily.
