This is how it should've been and brings it more in line with
std::string_view. There should be no functional change here.
This is mostly mechanical from a custom clang-tidy check, with a lot of
manual fixups. It uncovers a lot of minor inefficiencies.
This doesn't actually modify StringRef yet, I'll do that in a follow-up.
Summary:
This commits is a rework of the patch in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D67572.
The rework was requested to prevent out-of-tree performance regression
when vectorizing out-of-tree IR intrinsics. The vectorization of such
intrinsics is enquired via the static function `isTLIScalarize`. For
detail see the discussion in https://reviews.llvm.org/D67572.

This reverts commit 0be81968a2.
The VFDatabase needs some rework to be able to handle vectorization
and subsequent scalarization of intrinsics in out-of-tree versions of
the compiler. For more details, see the discussion in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D67572.
This patch introduced the VFDatabase, the framework proposed in
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-June/133484.html. [*]
In this patch the VFDatabase is used to bridge the TargetLibraryInfo
(TLI) calls that were previously used to query for the availability of
vector counterparts of scalar functions.
The VFISAKind field `ISA` of VFShape have been moved into into VFInfo,
under the assumption that different vector ISAs may provide the same
vector signature. At the moment, the vectorizer accepts any of the
available ISAs as long as the signature provided by the VFDatabase
matches the one expected in the vectorization process. For example,
when targeting AVX or AVX2, which both have 256-bit registers, the IR
signature of the two vector functions associated to the two ISAs is
the same. The `getVectorizedFunction` method at the moment returns the
first available match. We will need to add more heuristics to the
search system to decide which of the available version (TLI, AVX,
AVX2, ...) the system should prefer, when multiple versions with the
same VFShape are present.
Some of the code in this patch is based on the work done by Sumedh
Arani in https://reviews.llvm.org/D66025.
[*] Notice that in the proposal the VFDatabase was called SVFS. The
name VFDatabase is more in line with LLVM recommendations for
naming classes and variables.

This patch introduces a function pass to inject the scalar-to-vector
mappings stored in the TargetLIbraryInfo (TLI) into the Vector
Function ABI (VFABI) variants attribute.
The test is testing the injection for three vector libraries supported
by the TLI (Accelerate, SVML, MASSV).
The pass does not change any of the analysis associated to the
function.
