Teresa Johnson 1dad6247d2 [MemProf] Add memprof metadata related analysis utilities
Adds a number of utilities that are used to help create and update
memprof related metadata. These will be used during profile matching
and annotation, as well as by the inliner when updating the metadata.
Also adds unit tests for the utilities.

See also related RFCs:
RFC: Sanitizer-based Heap Profiler [1]
RFC: A binary serialization format for MemProf [2]
RFC: IR metadata format for MemProf [3]
(Note that the IR metadata format has changed from the RFC during
implementation, as described in the preceeding patch adding the basic
metadata and verification support.)

Depends on D128141.

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

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))
