Michael Kruse e4292bf086 [Support] Add -polly-dump-module pass.
This pass allows writing the LLVM-IR just before and after the Polly
passes to a file.

Dumping the IR before Polly helps reproducing bugs that occur in code
generated by clang. It is the only reliable way to get the IR that
triggers a bug. The alternative is to emit the IR with

    clang -c -emit-llvm -S -o dump.ll

then pass it through all optimization passes

    opt dump.ll -basicaa -sroa ... -S -o optdump.ll

to then reproduce the error with

    opt optdump.ll -polly-opt-isl -polly-codegen -analyze

However, the IR is not the same. -O3 uses a PassBuilder than creates passes
with different parameters than the default.

Dumping the IR after Polly is useful to compare a miscompilation with
a known-good configuration.

Polly - Polyhedral optimizations for LLVM
-----------------------------------------
http://polly.llvm.org/

Polly uses a mathematical representation, the polyhedral model, to represent and
transform loops and other control flow structures. Using an abstract
representation it is possible to reason about transformations in a more general
way and to use highly optimized linear programming libraries to figure out the
optimal loop structure. These transformations can be used to do constant
propagation through arrays, remove dead loop iterations, optimize loops for
cache locality, optimize arrays, apply advanced automatic parallelization, drive
vectorization, or they can be used to do software pipelining.
