f33131685b make GVN try to rename inputs to the resultant replaced values, which
cleans up the generated code a bit.  This should have the added benefit of
not randomly renaming functions/globals like my previous patch did. :)

9e59c64c14 Implement initial support for PHI translation in memdep. This means that
memdep keeps track of how PHIs affect the pointer in dep queries, which 
allows it to eliminate the load in cases like rle-phi-translate.ll, which
basically end up being:

BB1:
   X = load P
   br BB3
BB2:
   Y = load Q
   br BB3
BB3:
   R = phi [P] [Q]
   load R

turning "load R" into a phi of X/Y.  In addition to additional exposed
opportunities, this makes memdep safe in many cases that it wasn't before
(which is required for load PRE) and also makes it substantially more 
efficient.  For example, consider:


bb1:  // has many predecessors.
   P = some_operator()
   load P

In this example, previously memdep would scan all the predecessors of BB1
to see if they had something that would mustalias P.  In some cases (e.g.
test/Transforms/GVN/rle-must-alias.ll) it would actually find them and end
up eliminating something.  In many other cases though, it would scan and not
find anything useful.  MemDep now stops at a block if the pointer is defined
in that block and cannot be phi translated to predecessors.  This causes it
to miss the (rare) cases like rle-must-alias.ll, but makes it faster by not
scanning tons of stuff that is unlikely to be useful.  For example, this
speeds up GVN as a whole from 3.928s to 2.448s (60%)!.  IMO, scalar GVN 
should be enhanced to simplify the rle-must-alias pointer base anyway, which
would allow the loads to be eliminated.

In the future, this should be enhanced to phi translate through geps and 
bitcasts as well (as indicated by FIXMEs) making memdep even more powerful.

8295e49e76 Temporarily revert r60973. It's inexplicably causing a failure when self-hosting LLVM:

This is in release mode. To replicate, compile llvm and llvm-gcc in optimized
mode. Then build llvm, in optimized mode, with the newly created compiler.

879922932f make RLE preserve the name of the load that it replaces. This is just
a pretification of the IR.
