performing partial redundancy elimination (PRE). Not doing so can cause jumpy line
tables and confusing (though correct) source attributions.

Summary:
This change adds some verification in the IR verifier around struct path
TBAA metadata.
Other than some basic sanity checks (e.g. we get constant integers where
we expect constant integers), this checks:
- That by the time an struct access tuple `(base-type, offset)` is
"reduced" to a scalar base type, the offset is `0`. For instance, in
C++ you can't start from, say `("struct-a", 16)`, and end up with
`("int", 4)` -- by the time the base type is `"int"`, the offset
better be zero. In particular, a variant of this invariant is needed
for `llvm::getMostGenericTBAA` to be correct.
- That there are no cycles in a struct path.
- That struct type nodes have their offsets listed in an ascending
order.
- That when generating the struct access path, you eventually reach the
access type listed in the tbaa tag node.

There's no agreement about this patch. I personally find the
PRE machinery of the current GVN hard enough to reason about
that I'm not sure I'll try to land this again, instead of working
on the rewrite).

In theory this could be generalized to move anything where
we prove the operands are available, but that would require
rewriting PRE. As NewGVN will hopefully come soon, and we're
trying to rewrite PRE in terms of NewGVN+MemorySSA, it's probably
not worth spending too much time on it. Fix provided by
Daniel Berlin!

Pointers in different addrspaces can have different sizes, so it's not valid to look through addrspace cast calculating base and offset for a value.
This is similar to D13008.
