Chad Rosier 3a884f5c17 Move the capture analysis from MemoryDependencyAnalysis to a more general place
so that it can be reused in MemCpyOptimizer.  This analysis is needed to remove
an unnecessary memcpy when returning a struct into a local variable.

//===- AliasAnalysis.cpp - Generic Alias Analysis Interface Implementation -==//
//
// The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
//
// This file is distributed under the University of Illinois Open Source

//
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
//
// This file implements the generic AliasAnalysis interface which is used as the
// common interface used by all clients and implementations of alias analysis.
//
// This file also implements the default version of the AliasAnalysis interface
// that is to be used when no other implementation is specified. This does some
// simple tests that detect obvious cases: two different global pointers cannot
// alias, a global cannot alias a malloc, two different mallocs cannot alias,
// etc.
//
// This alias analysis implementation really isn't very good for anything, but
// it is very fast, and makes a nice clean default implementation. Because it
// handles lots of little corner cases, other, more complex, alias analysis
// implementations may choose to rely on this pass to resolve these simple and
// easy cases.
