to stabilize a test that really is trying to test generic behavior and
not a specific target's behavior.

powers of two. This is essentially always the correct thing given the
impact on alignment, scaling factors that can be used in addressing
modes, etc. Also, fix the management of the unroll vs. small loop cost
to more accurately model things with this world.
Enhance a test case to actually exercise more of the unroll machinery if
using synthetic constants rather than a specific target model. Before
this change, with the added flags this test will unroll 3 times instead
of either 2 or 4 (the two sensible answers).
While I don't expect this to make a huge difference, if there are lots
of loops sitting right on the edge of hitting the 'small unroll' factor,
they might change behavior. However, I've benchmarked moving the small
loop cost up and down in many various ways and by a huge factor (2x)
without seeing more than 0.2% code size growth. Small adjustments such
as the series that led up here have led to about 1% improvement on some
benchmarks, but it is very close to the noise floor so I mostly checked
that nothing regressed. Let me know if you see bad behavior on other
targets but I don't expect this to be a sufficiently dramatic change to
trigger anything.

This patch enables unrolling of loops when vectorization is legal but not profitable.
We add a new class InnerLoopUnroller, that extends InnerLoopVectorizer and replaces some of the vector-specific logic with scalars.
This patch does not introduce any runtime regressions and improves the following workloads:
SingleSource/Benchmarks/Shootout/matrix -22.64%
