bits captured, but the pointer marked nocapture. In fact
I now recall that this problem is why only readnone functions
returning void were considered before! However keep a small
fix that was also in r70876: a readnone function returning
void can result in bits being captured if it unwinds, so
test for this.

the readnone. Since MallocInst is scheduled for deletion
it doesn't seem worth doing anything more subtle, such as
having mayWriteToMemory return true for MallocInst.

was it not very helpful, it was also wrong! The problem
is shown in the testcase: the alloca might be passed to
a nocapture callee which dereferences it and returns the
original pointer. But because it was a nocapture call we
think we don't need to track its uses, but we do.

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.

reason. Two functions which mutually require each other to be nocapture
are not currently supported.

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'.
