Chris Lattner fe8c7c807c teach libanalysis to fold int and fp loads from almost arbitrary
non-type-safe constant initializers.  This sort of thing happens
quite a bit for 4-byte loads out of string constants, unions, 
bitfields, and an interesting endianness check from sqlite, which
is something like this:

const int sqlite3one = 1;
# define SQLITE_BIGENDIAN    (*(char *)(&sqlite3one)==0)
# define SQLITE_LITTLEENDIAN (*(char *)(&sqlite3one)==1)
# define SQLITE_UTF16NATIVE (SQLITE_BIGENDIAN?SQLITE_UTF16BE:SQLITE_UTF16LE)

all of these macros now constant fold away.

This implements PR3152 and is based on a patch started by Eli, but heavily
modified and extended.

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

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.
