not have pointer type. In particular, it may
be the condition argument for a select or a GEP
index. While I was unable to construct a testcase
for which some bits of the original pointer are
captured due to one of these, it's very very close
to being possible - so play safe and exclude these
possibilities.

the argument to be stored to an alloca by tracking uses
of the alloca. This occurs 4 times (out of 7121, 0.05%)
in MultiSource/Applications, so may not be worth it. On
the other hand, it is easy to do and fairly cheap. The
functions it helps are: W_addcom and W_addlit in spiff;
process_args (argv) in d (make_dparser); ercPixConcealIMB
in JM/ldecod.

functions that don't write can't leak a pointer except through
the return value, so a void readonly function is implicitly nocapture.
Test these, and add a test that verifies that f1 calling f2 with an
otherwise dead pointer gets both of them marked nocapture.

to work out (in a very simplistic way) which function
arguments (pointer arguments only) are only dereferenced
and so do not escape. Mark such arguments 'nocapture'.

and select instructions doesn't buy anything here
except extra complexity: the only difference in
the entire testsuite was that a readonly function
became readnone in MiBench/consumer-typeset. Add
a comment about this.

constants, since doing so is irrelevant for aliasing
purposes. While this doesn't increase the total number
of functions marked readonly or readnone in MultiSource/
Applications (3089), it does result in 12 functions being
marked readnone rather than readonly.
Before:
readnone: 820
readonly: 2269
After:
readnone: 832
readonly: 2257

nodes. This allows it to do fairly general phi insertion if a
load from a pointer global wants to be SRAd but the load is used
by (recursive) phi nodes. This fixes a pessimization on ppc
introduced by Load PRE.

This triggers only 60 times in llvm-test (look at .llvm.bc, not .linked.rbc)
and so it probably wont be turned on by default. Also, may of those are likely
to go away when PR2973 is fixed.

- This explicitly models the costs for functions which should
"always" or "never" be inlined. This fixes bugs where such costs
were not previously respected.

when deciding whether to mark a function readnone/readonly.
Since the pass is currently run before SROA, this may be
quite helpful. Requested by Chris on IRC.
