The loop vectorizer will currently assume a large trip count when
calculating which of several vectorization factors are more profitable.
That is often not a terrible assumption to make as small trip count
loops will usually have been fully unrolled. There are cases however
where we will try to vectorize them, and especially when folding the
tail by masking can incorrectly choose to vectorize loops that are not
beneficial, due to the folded tail rounding the iteration count up for
the vectorized loop.
The motivating example here has a trip count of 5, so either performs 5
scalar iterations or 2 vector iterations (with VF=4). At a high enough
trip count the vectorization becomes profitable, but the rounding up to
2 vector iterations vs only 5 scalar makes it unprofitable.
This adds an alternative cost calculation when we know the max trip
count and are folding tail by masking, rounding the iteration count up
to the correct number for the vector width. We still do not account for
anything like setup cost or the mixture of vector and scalar loops, but
this is at least an improvement in a few cases that we have had
reported.

Adds support for scalable vectorization of loops containing first-order recurrences, e.g:
```
for(int i = 0; i < n; i++)
b[i] = a[i] + a[i - 1]
```
This patch changes fixFirstOrderRecurrence for scalable vectors to take vscale into
account when inserting into and extracting from the last lane of a vector.
CreateVectorSplice has been added to construct a vector for the recurrence, which
returns a splice intrinsic for scalable types. For fixed-width the behaviour
remains unchanged as CreateVectorSplice will return a shufflevector instead.
The tests included here are the same as test/Transform/LoopVectorize/first-order-recurrence.ll

LoopVectorize has a fairly deeply baked in design problem where it will try to query analysis (primarily SCEV, but also ValueTracking) in the midst of mutating IR. In particular, the intermediate IR state does not represent the semantics of the original (or final) program.
Fixing this for real is hard, but all of the cases seen so far share a common symptom. In cases seen to date, the analysis being queried is the computation of the original loop's trip count. We can fix this particular instance of the issue by simply computing the trip count early, and caching it.
I want to be really clear that this is nothing but a workaround. It does nothing to fix the root issue, and at best, delays the time until we have to fix this for real. Florian and I have discussed an eventual solution in the review comments for https://reviews.llvm.org/D100663, but it's a lot of work.

This patch updates the code that sinks recipes required for first-order
recurrences to properly handle replicate-regions. At the moment, the
code would just move the replicate recipe out of its replicate-region,
producing an invalid VPlan.
When sinking a recipe in a replicate-region, we have to sink the whole
region. To do that, we first need to split the block at the target
recipe and move the region in between.
This patch also adds a splitAt helper to VPBasicBlock to split a
VPBasicBlock at a given iterator.
Fixes PR50009.

This patch simplifies the calculation of certain costs in
getInstructionCost when isScalarAfterVectorization() returns a true value.
There are a few places where we multiply a cost by a number N, i.e.
unsigned N = isScalarAfterVectorization(I, VF) ? VF.getKnownMinValue() : 1;
return N * TTI.getArithmeticInstrCost(...
After some investigation it seems that there are only these cases that occur
in practice:
1. VF is a scalar, in which case N = 1.
2. VF is a vector. We can only get here if: a) the instruction is a
GEP/bitcast/PHI with scalar uses, or b) this is an update to an induction
variable that remains scalar.
I have changed the code so that N is assumed to always be 1. For GEPs
the cost is always 0, since this is calculated later on as part of the
load/store cost. PHI nodes are costed separately and were never previously
multiplied by VF. For all other cases I have added an assert that none of
the users needs scalarising, which didn't fire in any unit tests.
Only one test required fixing and I believe the original cost for the scalar
add instruction to have been wrong, since only one copy remains after
vectorisation.
I have also added a new test for the case when a pointer PHI feeds directly
into a store that will be scalarised as we were previously never testing it.

This patch also refactors the way the feasible max VF is calculated,
although this is NFC for fixed-width vectors.
After this change scalable VF hints are no longer truncated/clamped
to a shorter scalable VF, nor does it drop the 'scalable flag' from
the suggested VF to vectorize with a similar VF that is fixed.
Instead, the hint is ignored which means the vectorizer is free
to find a more suitable VF, using the CostModel to determine the
best possible VF.

Because there is already a GraphTraits specialization for VPBlockBase *

This allows us to provide a new GraphTraits specialization for that
type. Users can use the new recursive traversal by using this wrapper.
The graph trait visits both the entry block of a region, as well as all
its successors. Exit blocks of a region implicitly have their parent
region's successors. This ensures all blocks in a region are visited
before any blocks in a successor region when doing a reverse post-order
traversal of the graph.

Rather than maintaining two separate values, a `float` for the per-lane
cost and a Width for the VF, maintain a single VectorizationFactor which
comprises the two and also removes the need for converting an integer value
to float.
This simplifies the query when asking if one VF is more profitable than
another when we want to extend this for scalable vectors (which may
require additional options to determine if e.g. a scalable VF of the
some cost, is more profitable than a fixed VF of the same cost).
The patch isn't entirely NFC because it also fixes an issue in
selectEpilogueVectorizationFactor, where the cost passed to ProfitableVFs
no longer truncates the floating-point cost from `float` to `unsigned` to
then perform the calculation on the truncated cost. It now does
a cost comparison with the correct precision.
