Hal Finkel 6a075f530a [CFL-AA] Update for handling of globals and more tests
We used to return PartialAlias if *either* variable being queried interacted
with arguments or globals. AFAICT, we can change this to only returning
MayAlias iff *both* variables being queried interacted with arguments or
globals.

Also, adding some basic functionality tests: some basic IPA tests, checking
that we give conservative responses with arguments/globals thrown in the mix,
and ensuring that we trace values through stores and loads.

Note that saying that 'x' interacted with arguments or globals means that the
Attributes of the StratifiedSet that 'x' belongs to has any bits set.

Patch by George Burgess IV, thanks!

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

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))
