In order to have a valid region analysis, we assign all newly created blocks to the parent of the scop's region. This is correct for any pre-existing regions (including the scop's region and its parent), but does not discover any region inside the generated code. For Polly this is not necessary because we do not want to re-run Polly on its own generated code anyway.

The previous code had several problems:
For newly created BasicBlocks it did not (always) call RegionInfo::setRegionFor in order to update its analysis. At the moment RegionInfo does not verify its BBMap, but will in the future. This is fixed by determining the region new BBs belong to and set it accordingly. The new executeScopConditionally() requires accurate getRegionFor information.
Which block is created by SplitEdge depends on the incoming and outgoing edges of the blocks it connects, which makes handling its output more difficult than it needs to be. Especially for finding which block has been created an to assign a region to it for the setRegionFor problem above. This patch uses an implementation for splitEdge that always creates a block between the predecessor and successor. simplifyRegion has also been simplified by using SplitBlockPredecessors instead of SplitEdge. Isolating the entries and exits have been refectored into individual functions.
Previously simplifyRegion did more than just ensuring that there is only one entering and one exiting edge. It ensured that the entering block had no other outgoing edge which was necessary for executeScopConditionally(). Now the latter uses the alternative splitEdge implementation which can handle this situation so simplifyRegion really only needs to simplify the region.
Also, executeScopConditionally assumed that there can be no PHI nodes in blocks with one incoming edge. This is wrong and LCSSA deliberately produces such edges. However, previous passes ensured that there can be no such PHIs in exit nodes, but which will no longer hold in the future.
The new code that the property that it preserves the identity of region block (the property that the memory address of the BasicBlock containing the instructions remains the same; new blocks only contain PHI nodes and a terminator), especially the entry block. As a result, there is no need to update the reference to the BasicBlock of ScopStmt that contain its instructions because they have been moved to other basic blocks.

Even though read-only accesses to scalars outside of a scop do not need to be
modeled to derive valid transformations or to generate valid sequential code,
but information about them is useful when we considering memory footprint
analysis and/or kernel offloading.

We use the branch instruction as the location at which a PHI-node write takes
place, instead of the PHI-node itself. This allows us to identify the
basic-block in a region statement which is on the incoming edge of the PHI-node
and for which the write access was originally introduced. As a result we can,
during code generation, avoid generating PHI-node write accesses for basic
blocks that do not preceed the PHI node without having to look at the IR
again.
This change fixes a bug which was introduced in r243420, when we started to
explicitly model PHI-node reads and writes, but dropped some additional checks
that where still necessary during code generation to not emit PHI-node writes
for basic-blocks that are not on incoming edges of the original PHI node.
Compared to the code before r243420 the new code does not need to inspect the IR
any more and we also do not generate multiple redundant writes.

SCEVExpander, which we are using during code generation, only allows
instructions as insert locations, but breaks in case BasicBlock->end() iterators
are passed to it due to it trying to obtain the basic block in which code should
be generated by calling Instruction->getParent(), which is not defined for
->end() iterators.
This change adds an assert to Polly that ensures we only pass valid instructions
to SCEVExpander and it fixes one case, where we used IRBuilder->SetInsertBlock()
to set an ->end() insert location which was later passed to SCEVExpander.
In general, Polly is always trying to build up the CFG first, before we actually
insert instructions into the CFG sceleton. As a result, each basic block should
already have at least one branch instruction before we start adding code. Hence,
always requiring the IRBuilder insert location to be set to a real instruction
should always be possible.

reduction.

It is common practice to keep constructors lightweight. The reasons
include:
- The vtable during the constructor's execution is set to the static
type of the object, not to the vtable of the derived class. That is,
method calls behave differently in constructors and ordinary methods.
This way it is possible to call unimplemented methods of abstract
classes, which usually results in a segmentation fault.
- If an exception is thrown in the constructor, the destructor is not
called, potentially leaking memory.
- Code in constructors cannot be called in a regular way, e.g. from
non-constructor methods of derived classes.
- Because it is common practice, people may not expect the constructor
to do more than initializing data and skip them when looking for bugs.
Not all of these are applicable to LLVM (e.g. exceptions are disabled).
This patch refactors out the computational work in the constructors of
Scop and IslAst into regular init functions and introduces static
create-functions as replacement.

Summary:
When translating PHI nodes into memory dependences during code generation we
require two kinds of memory. 'Normal memory' as for all scalar dependences and
'PHI node memory' to store the incoming values of the PHI node. With this
patch we now mark and track these two kinds of memories, which we previously
incorrectly marked as a single memory object.
Being aware of PHI node storage makes code generation easier, as we do not need
to guess what kind of storage a scalar reference requires. This simplifies the
code nicely.

We hoist statements that are used on both branches of an if-condition, shorten
and unify some variable names and fold some variable declarations into their

As specified in PR23888, run-time alias check generation is expensive
in terms of compile-time. This reduces the compile time by computing
minimal/maximal access only once for each base pointer

Instead of flat schedules, we now use so-called schedule trees to represent the
execution order of the statements in a SCoP. Schedule trees make it a lot easier
to analyze, understand and modify properties of a schedule, as specific nodes
in the tree can be choosen and possibly replaced.
This patch does not yet fully move our DependenceInfo pass to schedule trees,
as some additional performance analysis is needed here. (In general schedule
trees should be faster in compile-time, as the more structured representation
is generally easier to analyze and work with). We also can not yet perform the
reduction analysis on schedule trees.

LLVM's instcombine already translates power-of-two sdivs that are known to be
exact to fast ashr instructions. Hence, there is no need to add this logic
ourselves.

floord(a,b) === a ashr log_2 (b) holds for positive and negative a's, but
shifting only makes sense for positive values of b. The previous patch did
not consider this as isl currently always produces postive b's. To avoid future
surprises, we check that b is positive and only then apply the optimization.
We also now correctly check the return value of the dyn-cast.
No additional test case, as isl currently does not produce negative
denominators.

isl marks known non-negative numerators in modulo (and soon also division)
operations. We now exploit this by generating unsigned operations. This is
beneficial as unsigned operations with power-of-two denominators will be
translated by isl to fast bitshift or bitwise and operations.

David Blaike suggested this as an alternative to the use of owningptr(s) for our
memory management, as value semantics allow to avoid the additional interface
complexity caused by owningptr while still providing similar memory consistency
guarantees. We could also have used a std::vector, but the use of std::vector
would yield possibly changing pointers which currently causes problems as for
example the memory accesses carry pointers to their parent statements. Such
pointers should not change.

To reduce compile time and to allow more and better quality SCoPs in
the long run we introduced scalar dependences and PHI-modeling. This
patch will now allow us to generate code if one or both of those
options are set. While the principle of demoting scalars as well as
PHIs to memory in order to communicate their value stays the same,
this allows to delay the demotion till the very end (the actual code
generation). Consequently:
- We __almost__ do not modify the code if we do not generate code
for an optimized SCoP in the end. Thus, the early exit as well as
the unprofitable option will now actually preven us from
introducing regressions in case we will probably not get better
code.
- Polly can be used as a "pure" analyzer tool as long as the code
generator is set to none.
- The original SCoP is almost not touched when the optimized version
is placed next to it. Runtime regressions if the runtime checks
chooses the original are not to be expected and later
optimizations do not need to revert the demotion for that part.
- We will generate direct accesses to the demoted values, thus there
are no "trivial GEPs" that select the first element of a scalar we
demoted and treated as an array.

Being here, we extend the interface to return the element type and not a pointer
to the element type. We also provide a function to get the size (in bytes) of
the elements stored in this array.
We currently still store the element size as an innermost dimension in
ScopArrayInfo, which is somehow inconsistent and should be addressed in future
patches.

Besides class, function and file names, we also change the command line option
from -polly-codegen-isl to just -polly-codegen. The isl postfix is a leftover
from the times when we still had the CLooG based -polly-codegen. Today it is
just redundant and we drop it.

Upcoming revisions of isl require us to include header files explicitly, which
have previously been already transitively included. Before we add them, we sort

We moved this implementation into the header file to share it between
the CLooG and isl code generator. As the CLooG code generator was dropped,
the implementation can be folded back into the .cpp file.

In Polly we used both the term 'scattering' and the term 'schedule' to describe
the execution order of a statement without actually distinguishing between them.
We now uniformly use the term 'schedule' for the execution order. This
corresponds to the terminology of isl.
History: CLooG introduced the term scattering as the generated code can be used
as a sequential execution order (schedule) or as a parallel dimension
enumerating different threads of execution (placement). In Polly and/or isl the
term placement was never used, but we uniformly refer to an execution order as a
schedule and only later introduce parallelism. When doing so we do not talk
about about specific placement dimensions.
