Chandler Carruth c9109225e2 Revert r225854: [PM] Move the LazyCallGraph printing functionality to
a print method.

This was formulated on a bad idea, but sadly I didn't uncover how bad
this was until I got further down the path. I had hoped that we could
provide a low boilerplate way of printing analyses, but it just doesn't
seem like this really fits the needs of the analyses. Not all analyses
really want to do printing, and those that do don't all use the same
interface. Instead, with the new pass manager let's just take advantage
of the fact that creating an explicit printer pass like the LCG has is
pretty low boilerplate already and rely on that for testing.

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

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))
