This is fixing pr31761: BasicAA is deducing NoAlias
on the result of the GEP if the base pointer is itself NoAlias.
This is possible only if the NoAlias on the base pointer is
deduced with a non-sized query: this should guarantee that
the pointers are belonging to different memory allocation
and that the GEP can't legally jump from one to another.

Summary:
The LibFunc::Func enum holds enumerators named for libc functions.
Unfortunately, there are real situations, including libc implementations, where
function names are actually macros (musl uses "#define fopen64 fopen", for
example; any other transitively visible macro would have similar effects).
Strictly speaking, a conforming C++ Standard Library should provide any such
macros as functions instead (via <cstdio>). However, there are some "library"
functions which are not part of the standard, and thus not subject to this
rule (fopen64, for example). So, in order to be both portable and consistent,
the enum should not use the bare function names.
The old enum naming used a namespace LibFunc and an enum Func, with bare
enumerators. This patch changes LibFunc to be an enum with enumerators prefixed
with "LibFFunc_". (Unfortunately, a scoped enum is not sufficient to override
macros.)
There are additional changes required in clang.

There is no need to do this within an analysis. That method shouldn't

This requires custom handling because BasicAA caches handles to other
analyses and so it needs to trigger indirect invalidation.
This fixes one of the common crashes when using the new PM in real
pipelines. I've also tweaked a regression test to check that we are at
least handling the most immediate case.
I'm going to work at re-structuring this test some to both scale better
(rather than all being in one file) and check more invalidation paths in
a follow-up commit, but I wanted to get the basic bug fix in place.

Instead, expose whether the current type is an array or a struct, if an array
what the upper bound is, and if a struct the struct type itself. This is
in preparation for a later change which will make PointerType derive from
Type rather than SequentialType.

analyses to have a common type which is enforced rather than using
a char object and a `void *` type when used as an identifier.
This has a number of advantages. First, it at least helps some of the
confusion raised in Justin Lebar's code review of why `void *` was being
used everywhere by having a stronger type that connects to documentation
about this.
However, perhaps more importantly, it addresses a serious issue where
the alignment of these pointer-like identifiers was unknown. This made
it hard to use them in pointer-like data structures. We were already
dodging this in dangerous ways to create the "all analyses" entry. In
a subsequent patch I attempted to use these with TinyPtrVector and
things fell apart in a very bad way.
And it isn't just a compile time or type system issue. Worse than that,
the actual alignment of these pointer-like opaque identifiers wasn't
guaranteed to be a useful alignment as they were just characters.
This change introduces a type to use as the "key" object whose address
forms the opaque identifier. This both forces the objects to have proper
alignment, and provides type checking that we get it right everywhere.
It also makes the types somewhat less mysterious than `void *`.
We could go one step further and introduce a truly opaque pointer-like
type to return from the `ID()` static function rather than returning
`AnalysisKey *`, but that didn't seem to be a clear win so this is just
the initial change to get to a reliably typed and aligned object serving
is a key for all the analyses.
Thanks to Richard Smith and Justin Lebar for helping pick plausible
names and avoid making this refactoring many times. =] And thanks to
Sean for the super fast review!
While here, I've tried to move away from the "PassID" nomenclature
entirely as it wasn't really helping and is overloaded with old pass
manager constructs. Now we have IDs for analyses, and key objects whose
address can be used as IDs. Where possible and clear I've shortened this
to just "ID". In a few places I kept "AnalysisID" to make it clear what
was being identified.

In BasicAA GEP operand values get adjusted ("wrap-around") based on the
pointersize. Otherwise, in non-64b modes, AA could report false negatives.
However, a wrap-around is valid only for a fully evaluated expression.
It had been introduced to fix an alias problem in
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-commits/Week-of-Mon-20160118/326163.html.
This commit restricts the wrap-around to constant gep operands only where the
value is known at compile-time.

Recursive calls to aliasCheck from alias[GEP|Select|PHI] may result in a second call to GetUnderlyingObject for a Value, whose underlying object is already computed. This patch ensures that in this situations, the underlying object is not computed again, and the result of the previous call is resued.

We teach alias analysis that invariant.start is readonly.
This helps with GVN and memcopy optimizations that currently treat.

We need to treat this as readonly, so that DSE does not incorrectly

r270777 improved the precision of alloca vs. inbounbds GEP alias queries: if
we have (a) an inbounds GEP and (b) a pointer based on an alloca, and the
beginning of the object the GEP points to would have a negative offset with
respect to the alloca, then the GEP can not alias pointer (b).
This makes the same logic fire when (b) is based on a GlobalVariable instead
of an alloca.

It turns out that too many passes are relying on alias analysis results
for control dependencies. Until we fix that by introducing a more accurate
modelling of control dependencies, special case assume in MemorySSA instead.
Also introduce tests to ensure we don't regress the FunctionAttrs or LICM
passes.

If a we have (a) a GEP and (b) a pointer based on an alloca, and the
beginning of the object the GEP points would have a negative offset with
repsect to the alloca, then the GEP can not alias pointer (b).
For example, consider code like:
struct { int f0, int f1, ...} foo;
...
foo alloca;
foo *random = bar(alloca);
int *f0 = &alloca.f0
int *f1 = &random->f1;
Which is lowered, approximately, to:
%alloca = alloca %struct.foo
%random = call %struct.foo* @random(%struct.foo* %alloca)
%f0 = getelementptr inbounds %struct, %struct.foo* %alloca, i32 0, i32 0
%f1 = getelementptr inbounds %struct, %struct.foo* %random, i32 0, i32 1
Assume %f1 and %f0 alias. Then %f1 would point into the object allocated
by %alloca. Since the %f1 GEP is inbounds, that means %random must also
point into the same object. But since %f0 points to the beginning of %alloca,
the highest %f1 can be is (%alloca + 3). This means %random can not be higher
than (%alloca - 1), and so is not inbounds, a contradiction.
