Chris Lattner 8cd4efb6a5 implement constant folding support for an exotic constant expr:
ret i64 ptrtoint (i8* getelementptr ([1000 x i8]* @X, i64 1, i64 sub (i64 0, i64 ptrtoint ([1000 x i8]* @X to i64))) to i64)

to "ret i64 1000".  This allows us to correctly compute the trip count
on a loop in PR8883, which occurs with std::fill on a char array.  This
allows us to transform it into a memset with a constant size.

Analysis Opportunities:

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//

In test/Transforms/LoopStrengthReduce/quadradic-exit-value.ll, the
ScalarEvolution expression for %r is this:

  {1,+,3,+,2}<loop>

Outside the loop, this could be evaluated simply as (%n * %n), however
ScalarEvolution currently evaluates it as

  (-2 + (2 * (trunc i65 (((zext i64 (-2 + %n) to i65) * (zext i64 (-1 + %n) to i65)) /u 2) to i64)) + (3 * %n))

In addition to being much more complicated, it involves i65 arithmetic,
which is very inefficient when expanded into code.

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//

In formatValue in test/CodeGen/X86/lsr-delayed-fold.ll,

ScalarEvolution is forming this expression:

((trunc i64 (-1 * %arg5) to i32) + (trunc i64 %arg5 to i32) + (-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32)))

This could be folded to

(-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32))
