Before this patch, CGLoop would dump all transformations for a loop into
a single LoopID without encoding any order in which to apply them.
rL348944 added the possibility to encode a transformation order using
followup-attributes.
When a loop has more than one transformation, use the follow-up
attribute define the order in which they are applied. The emitted order
is the defacto order as defined by the current LLVM pass pipeline,
which is:
LoopFullUnrollPass
LoopDistributePass
LoopVectorizePass
LoopUnrollAndJamPass
LoopUnrollPass
MachinePipeliner
This patch should therefore not change the assembly output, assuming
that all explicit transformations can be applied, and no implicit
transformations in-between. In the former case,
WarnMissedTransformationsPass should emit a warning (except for
MachinePipeliner which is not implemented yet). The latter could be
avoided by adding 'llvm.loop.disable_nonforced' attributes.
Because LoopUnrollAndJamPass processes a loop nest, generation of the
MDNode is delayed to after the inner loop metadata have been processed.
A temporary LoopID is therefore used to annotate instructions and
RAUW'ed by the actual LoopID later.

Instead of generating llvm.mem.parallel_loop_access metadata, generate
llvm.access.group on instructions and llvm.loop.parallel_accesses on
loops. There is one access group per generated loop.
This is clang part of D52116/r349725.

When ‘#pragma clang loop vectorize(assume_safety)’ was specified on a loop other loop hints were lost. The problem is that CGLoopInfo attaches metadata differently than EmitCondBrHints in CGStmt. For do-loops CGLoopInfo attaches metadata to the br in the body block and for while and for loops, the inc block. EmitCondBrHints on the other hand always attaches data to the br in the cond block. When specifying assume_safety CGLoopInfo emits an empty llvm.loop metadata shadowing the metadata in the cond block. Loop transformations like rotate and unswitch would then eliminate the cond block and its non-empty metadata.
This patch unifies both approaches for adding metadata and modifies the existing safety tests to include non-assume_safety loop hints.

Specifying #pragma clang loop vectorize(assume_safety) on a loop adds the
mem.parallel_loop_access metadata to each load/store operation in the loop. This
metadata tells loop access analysis (LAA) to skip memory dependency checking.
