Hal Finkel b035621720 Move the CapturesBefore tracker from AA into CaptureTracking
There were two generally-useful CaptureTracker classes defined in LLVM: the
simple tracker defined in CaptureTracking (and made available via the
PointerMayBeCaptured utility function), and the CapturesBefore tracker
available only inside of AA. This change moves the CapturesBefore tracker into
CaptureTracking, generalizes it slightly (by adding a ReturnCaptures
parameter), and makes it generally available via a PointerMayBeCapturedBefore
utility function.

This logic will be needed, for example, to perform noalias function parameter
attribute inference.

No functionality change intended.

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//

In test/Transforms/LoopStrengthReduce/quadradic-exit-value.ll, the
ScalarEvolution expression for %r is this:

  {1,+,3,+,2}<loop>

Outside the loop, this could be evaluated simply as (%n * %n), however
ScalarEvolution currently evaluates it as

  (-2 + (2 * (trunc i65 (((zext i64 (-2 + %n) to i65) * (zext i64 (-1 + %n) to i65)) /u 2) to i64)) + (3 * %n))

In addition to being much more complicated, it involves i65 arithmetic,
which is very inefficient when expanded into code.

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//

In formatValue in test/CodeGen/X86/lsr-delayed-fold.ll,

ScalarEvolution is forming this expression:

((trunc i64 (-1 * %arg5) to i32) + (trunc i64 %arg5 to i32) + (-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32)))

This could be folded to

(-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32))
