(recommit #2 after checking for timeout issue).
The original patch was an improvement to IR ValueTracking on
non-negative integers. It has been checked in to trunk (D18777,
r284022). But was disabled by default due to performance regressions.
Perf impact has improved. The patch would be enabled by default.

Debug information can be, and was, corrupted when the runtime
remainder loop was fully unrolled. This is because a !null node can
be created instead of a unique one describing the loop. In this case,
the original node gets incorrectly updated with the NewLoopID
metadata.
In the case when the remainder loop is going to be quickly fully
unrolled, there isn't the need to add loop metadata for it anyway.

On some targets, the penalty of executing runtime unrolling checks
and then not the unrolled loop can be significantly detrimental to
performance. This results in the need to be more conservative with
the unroll count, keeping a trip count of 2 reduces the overhead as
well as increasing the chance of the unrolled body being executed. But
being conservative leaves performance gains on the table.
This patch enables the unrolling of the remainder loop introduced by
runtime unrolling. This can help reduce the overhead of misunrolled
loops because the cost of non-taken branches is much less than the
cost of the backedge that would normally be executed in the remainder
loop. This allows larger unroll factors to be used without suffering
performance loses with smaller iteration counts.
