Dan Gohman 5be18e8476 Teach SCEVExpander to expand arithmetic involving pointers into GEP
instructions. It attempts to create high-level multi-operand GEPs,
though in cases where this isn't possible it falls back to casting
the pointer to i8* and emitting a GEP with that. Using GEP instructions
instead of ptrtoint+arithmetic+inttoptr helps pointer analyses that
don't use ScalarEvolution, such as BasicAliasAnalysis.

Also, make the AddrModeMatcher more aggressive in handling GEPs.
Previously it assumed that operand 0 of a GEP would require a register
in almost all cases. It now does extra checking and can do more
matching if operand 0 of the GEP is foldable. This fixes a problem
that was exposed by SCEVExpander using GEPs.
