Michael Kruse 87baae85cd [ScopBuilder] Skip getting leader when merging statements to close holes.
Function joinOrderedInstructions merges instructions when a leader is encountered twice.
It also notices that leaders in SeenLeaders may lose their leadership in previous merging,
and tries to handle the case using following code:

    Instruction *PrevLeader = UnionFind.getLeaderValue(SeenLeaders.back());

However, this is wrong because it always gets leader for the last element of SeenLeaders,
and I believe it's wrong even we get leader for Prev here.  As a result, Statements in cases
like the one in patch aren't merged as expected.  After investigation, I believe it's
unnecessary to get leader instruction at all.  This is based on fact: Although leaders in
SeenLeaders could lose leadership, they only lose to others in SeenLeaders, in other words,
one existing leader will be chosen as new leader of merged equivalent statements.  We can
take advantage of this and simply check if current leader equals to Prev and break merging
if it does.

The patch also adds a new test.

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.
