For internal functions, globals-aa returns different ModRefInfo
results if they are inlined and are no longer called by external
functions. This causes an assertion failure when cloning memoryssa
accesses.

While MemorySSA use optimization was already using BatchAA, the
publicly exposed MSSA walkers were using plain AAResults. This is
not great, because it is expected that clobber walking will make
repeated AA queries.
This patch makes the clobber API accept a BatchAAResults instance.
The plain APIs are kept as wrappers and will create a BatchAAResults
instance for the duration of the query. In the future, the explicit
BatchAAResults arguments will be used to share AA results across
queries, not just within one query.

If globals-aa is enabled, because of the deletion of memory instructions, there
may be call instruction that is not in ModOrRefSet but is a MemoryUseOrDef.
This causes the crash in the process of cloning uses and defs.

The pointsToConstantMemory() method returns true only if the memory pointed to
by the memory location is globally invariant. However, the LLVM memory model
also has the semantic notion of *locally-invariant*: memory that is known to be
invariant for the life of the SSA value representing that pointer. The most
common example of this is a pointer argument that is marked readonly noalias,
which the Rust compiler frequently emits.
It'd be desirable for LLVM to treat locally-invariant memory the same way as
globally-invariant memory when it's safe to do so. This patch implements that,
by introducing the concept of a *ModRefInfo mask*. A ModRefInfo mask is a bound
on the Mod/Ref behavior of an instruction that writes to a memory location,
based on the knowledge that the memory is globally-constant memory (in which
case the mask is NoModRef) or locally-constant memory (in which case the mask
is Ref). ModRefInfo values for an instruction can be combined with the
ModRefInfo mask by simply using the & operator. Where appropriate, this patch
has modified uses of pointsToConstantMemory() to instead examine the mask.
The most notable optimization change I noticed with this patch is that now
redundant loads from readonly noalias pointers can be eliminated across calls,
even when the pointer is captured. Internally, before this patch,
AliasAnalysis was assigning Ref to reads from constant memory; now AA can
assign NoModRef, which is a tighter bound.

I believe this is no longer necessary, as the underlying problem
has been fixed in a different way: Nowadays, we will adjust the
location size to beforeOrAfterPointer() if the pointer is not loop
invariant. This makes merging results translated across loop
backedges safe.
The two tests in phi-translation.ll show an improvement while still
being correct: The loads in the loop no longer alias with noalias
pointers, but still alias with the store in the entry block (which
they originally did not -- this is the bug that
PerformedPhiTranslation originally fixed).

getModRefInfo() queries currently track whether the result is a
MustAlias on a best-effort basis. The only user of this functionality
is the optimized memory access type in MemorySSA -- which in turn
has no users. Given that this functionality has not found a user
since it was introduced five years ago (in D38862), I think we
should drop it again.
The context is that I'm working to separate FunctionModRefBehavior
to track mod/ref for different location kinds (like argmem or
inaccessiblemem) separately, and the fact that ModRefInfo also has
an unrelated Must flag makes this quite awkward, especially as this
means that NoModRef is not a zero value. If we want to retain the
functionality, I would probably split getModRefInfo() results into
a part that just contains the ModRef information, and a separate
part containing a (best-effort) AliasResult.

This changes MemorySSA to be constructed in unoptimized form.
MemorySSA::ensureOptimizedUses() can be called to optimize all
uses (once). This should be done by passes where having optimized
uses is beneficial, either because we're going to query all uses
anyway, or because we're doing def-use walks.
This should help reduce the compile-time impact of MemorySSA for
some use cases (the reason why I started looking into this is
D117926), which can avoid optimizing all uses upfront, and instead
only optimize those that are actually queried.
Actually, we have an existing use-case for this, which is EarlyCSE.
Disabling eager use optimization there gives a significant
compile-time improvement, because EarlyCSE will generally only query
clobbers for a subset of all uses (this change is not included in
this patch).

This patch continues unblocking optimizations that are blocked by pseudo probe instrumentation.
Not exactly like DbgIntrinsics, PseudoProbe intrinsic has other attributes (such as mayread, maywrite, mayhaveSideEffect) that can block optimizations. The issues fixed are:
- Flipped default param of getFirstNonPHIOrDbg API to skip pseudo probes
- Unblocked CSE by avoiding pseudo probe from clobbering memory SSA
- Unblocked induction variable simpliciation
- Allow empty loop deletion by treating probe intrinsic isDroppable
- Some refactoring.

Add two levels of verification for MemorySSA: Fast and Full.
The defaults are kept the same. Full verification always occurs under
EXPENSIVE_CHECKS, but now it can also be requested in a specific pass for
debugging purposes.
The implementation is mostly copied from MemDepAnalysis. We want to look
at all loads and stores to the same pointer operand. Bitcasts and zero
GEPs of a pointer are considered the same pointer value. We choose the
most dominating instruction.
Since updating MemorySSA with invariant.group is non-trivial, for now
handling of invariant.group is not cached in any way, so it's part of
the walker. The number of loads/stores with invariant.group is small for
now anyway. We can revisit if this actually noticeably affects compile
times.
To avoid invariant.group affecting optimized uses, we need to have
optimizeUsesInBlock() not use invariant.group in any way.

This option has been enabled by default for quite a while now.
The practical impact of removing the option is that MSSA use
cannot be disabled in default pipelines (both LPM and NPM) and
in manual LPM invocations. NPM can still choose to enable/disable
MSSA using loop vs loop-mssa.
The next step will be to require MSSA for LICM and drop the
AST-based implementation entirely.

As mentioned in [[ https://reviews.llvm.org/D96979 | D96979 ]], I'm extending the **IsGuaranteedLoopInvariant** check also to the `MemorySSA.cpp` file.
@fhahn For now I didn't unify the function into `MemorySSA.h` because, as you mentioned, it's not directly MSSA related. I'm open to suggestions to find a better place so we can improve the unification process.

When calling getClobberingMemoryAccess() with MemoryLocation on a
MemoryPHI starting access, the walker currently immediately bails
and returns the starting access. This makes sense for the API that
does not accept a location (as we wouldn't know what clobber we
should be checking for), but doesn't make sense for the
MemoryLocation-based API. This means that it can't look through
a MemoryPHI if it's the starting access, but can if there is one
more non-clobbering def in between. This patch removes the limitation.

MemorySSA currently treats lifetime.end intrinsics as not aliasing
anything. This breaks MemorySSA-based MemCpyOpt, because we'll happily
move a read of a pointer below a lifetime.end intrinsic, as no clobber
is reported.
I think the MemorySSA modelling here isn't correct: lifetime.end(p)
has approximately the same effect as doing a memcpy(p, undef), and
should be treated as a clobber.
This patch removes the special handling of lifetime.end, leaving
alias analysis to handle it appropriately.
