Polly was accidently modifying a debug info metadata node when
attempting to generate a new unique metadata node for the loop id.
The problem was that we had dwarf metadata that referred to a
metadata node with a null value, like this:
!6 = ... some dwarf metadata referring to !7 ...
!7 = {null}
When we attempt to generate a new metadata node, we reserve the
first space for self-referential node by setting the first argument
to null and then mutating the node later to refer to itself.
However, because the nodes are uniqued based on pointer values, when
we get the new metadata node it actually referred to an existing
node (!7 in the example). When we went to modify the metadata to
point to itself, we were accidently mutating the dwarf metatdata. We
ended up in this situation:
!6 = ... some dwarf metadata referring to !7 ...
!7 = {!7}
and this causes an assert when generating the debug info. The fix is
simple, we just need to use a unique value when getting a new
metadata node. The MDNode::getTemporary() provides exactly the API
we need (and it is used in clang to generate the unique nodes).

The LoopAnnotator doesn't annotate only loops any more, thus it is
called ScopAnnotator from now on.
This also removes unnecessary polly:: namespace tags.

The command line flag -polly-annotate-alias-scopes controls whether or not
Polly annotates alias scopes in the new SCoP (default ON). This can improve
later optimizations as the new SCoP is basically an alias free environment for
them.

This change allows to annotate all parallel loops with loop id metadata.
Furthermore, it will annotate memory instructions with
llvm.mem.parallel_loop_access metadata for all surrounding parallel loops.
This is especially usefull if an external paralleliser is used.
This also removes the PollyLoopInfo class and comments the
LoopAnnotator.
A test case for multiple parallel loops is attached.
llvm-svn: 218793
For now we only mark innermost loops for the loop vectorizer. We could later
also mark not-innermost loops to enable the introduction of openmp parallelism.
