[LLVM part]
These patches rename the loop unrolling and loop vectorizer metadata
such that they have a common 'llvm.loop.' prefix. Metadata name
changes:
llvm.vectorizer.* => llvm.loop.vectorizer.*
llvm.loopunroll.* => llvm.loop.unroll.*
This was a suggestion from an earlier review
(http://reviews.llvm.org/D4090) which added the loop unrolling
metadata.

Make sure we mark all loops (scalar and vector) when vectorizing,
so that we don't try to vectorize them anymore. Also, set unroll
to 1, since this is what we check for on early exit.

- llvm.loop.parallel metadata has been renamed to llvm.loop to be more generic
by making the root of additional loop metadata.
- Loop::isAnnotatedParallel now looks for llvm.loop and associated
llvm.mem.parallel_loop_access
- document llvm.loop and update llvm.mem.parallel_loop_access
- add support for llvm.vectorizer.width and llvm.vectorizer.unroll
- document llvm.vectorizer.* metadata
- add utility class LoopVectorizerHints for getting/setting loop metadata
- use llvm.vectorizer.width=1 to indicate already vectorized instead of
already_vectorized
- update existing tests that used llvm.loop.parallel and
llvm.vectorizer.already_vectorized

The LoopVectorizer often runs multiple times on the same function due to inlining.
When this happens the loop vectorizer often vectorizes the same loops multiple times, increasing code size and adding unneeded branches.
With this patch, the vectorizer during vectorization puts metadata on scalar loops and marks them as 'already vectorized' so that it knows to ignore them when it sees them a second time.
