The main change is that now we generate TBAA info before
constructing the resulting lvalue instead of constructing lvalue
with some default TBAA info and fixing it as necessary
afterwards. We also keep the TBAA info close to lvalue base info,
which is supposed to simplify their future merging.
This patch should not bring in any functional changes.

This patch addresses the rest of the cases where we pass lvalue
base info, but do not provide corresponding TBAA info.

This patch enables explicit generation of TBAA information in all
cases where LValue base info is propagated or constructed in
non-trivial ways. Eventually, we will consider each of these
cases to make sure the TBAA information is correct and not too
conservative. For now, we just fall back to generating TBAA info
from the access type.

Besides obvious code simplification, avoiding explicit creation
of LValueBaseInfo objects makes it easier to make TBAA
information to be part of such objects.

In C++11 variable to global variables are considered as constant
expressions and these variables are not captured in the outlined
regions. Patch allows capturing of such variables in the OpenMP regions.

This patch is an attempt to clarify and simplify generation and
propagation of TBAA information. The idea is to pack all values
that describe a memory access, namely, base type, access type and
offset, into a single structure. This is supposed to make further
changes, such as adding support for unions and array members,
easier to prepare and review.
DecorateInstructionWithTBAA() is no more responsible for
converting types to tags. These implicit conversions not only
complicate reading the code, but also suggest assigning scalar
access tags while we generally prefer full-size struct-path tags.
TBAAPathTag is replaced with TBAAAccessInfo; the latter is now
the type of the keys of the cache map that translates access
descriptors to metadata nodes.
Fixed a bug with writing to a wrong map in
getTBAABaseTypeMetadata() (former getTBAAStructTypeInfo()).
We now check for valid base access types every time we
dereference a field. The original code only checks the top-level
base type. See isValidBaseType() / isTBAAPathStruct() calls.
Some entities have been renamed to sound more adequate and less
confusing/misleading in presence of path-aware TBAA information.
Now we do not lookup twice for the same cache entry in
getAccessTagInfo().
Refined relevant comments and descriptions.

This patch makes it possible to produce access tags in a uniform
manner regardless whether the resulting tag will be a scalar or a
struct-path one. getAccessTagInfo() now takes care of the actual
translation of access descriptors to tags and can handle all
kinds of accesses. Facilities that specific to scalar accesses
are eliminated.
Some more details:
* DecorateInstructionWithTBAA() is not responsible for conversion
of types to access tags anymore. Instead, it takes an access
descriptor (TBAAAccessInfo) and generates corresponding access
tag from it.
* getTBAAInfoForVTablePtr() reworked to
getTBAAVTablePtrAccessInfo() that now returns the
virtual-pointer access descriptor and not the virtual-point
type metadata.
* Added function getTBAAMayAliasAccessInfo() that returns the
descriptor for may-alias accesses.
* getTBAAStructTagInfo() renamed to getTBAAAccessTagInfo() as now
it is the only way to generate access tag by a given access
descriptor. It is capable of producing both scalar and
struct-path tags, depending on options and availability of the
base access type. getTBAAScalarTagInfo() and its cache
ScalarTagMetadataCache are eliminated.
* Now that we do not need to care about whether the resulting
access tag should be a scalar or struct-path one,
getTBAAStructTypeInfo() is renamed to getBaseTypeInfo().
* Added function getTBAAAccessInfo() that constructs access
descriptor by a given QualType access type.

Don't emit alignment checks which the IR constant folder throws away.
I've tested this out on X86FastISel.cpp. While this doesn't decrease
end-to-end compile-time significantly, it results in 122 fewer type
checks (1% reduction) overall, without adding any real complexity.
