LSR uses SCEVExpander to generate induction formulas. The expander
internally tries to reuse existing IR expressions. To do that, it needs
to strip any poison generating flags (nsw, nuw, exact, nneg, etc..)
which may not be valid for the newly added users.

This is conservatively correct, but has the effect that LSR will strip
nneg flags on zext instructions involved in trip counts in loop
preheaders. To avoid this, this patch adjusts the expanded to reinfer
the flags on the CSE candidate if legal for all possible users.

This should fix the regression reported in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/71200.

This should arguably be done inside canReuseInstruction instead, but
doing it outside is more conservative compile time wise. Both
canReuseInstruction and isGuaranteedNotToBePoison walk operand lists, so
right now we are performing work which is roughly O(N^2) in the size of
the operand graph. We should fix that before making the per operand step
more expensive. My tenative plan is to land this, and then rework the
code to sink the logic into more core interfaces.

LoopPredication introduces the use of possibly posion value in branch (guard)
instruction, so to avoid introducing undefined behavior it should be frozen.

As LoopPredication performs non-equivalent transforms removing some
checks from loops, other passes may not be able to perform transforms
they'd be able to do if the checks were left in loops.

This patch makes LoopPredication insert assumes of the replaced
conditions either after a guard call or in the true block of
widenable condition branch.

The basic problem we have is that we're trying to reuse an instruction which is mapped to some SCEV. Since we can have multiple such instructions (potentially with different flags), this is analogous to our need to drop flags when performing CSE. A trivial implementation would simply drop flags on any instruction we decided to reuse, and that would be correct.

This patch is almost that trivial patch except that we preserve flags on the reused instruction when existing users would imply UB on overflow already. Adding new users can, at most, refine this program to one which doesn't execute UB which is valid.

In practice, this fixes two conceptual problems with the previous code: 1) a binop could have been canonicalized into a form with different opcode or operands, or 2) the inbounds GEP case which was simply unhandled.

On the test changes, most are pretty straight forward. We loose some flags (in some cases, they'd have been dropped on the next CSE pass anyways). The one that took me the longest to understand was the ashr-expansion test. What's happening there is that we're considering reuse of the mul, previously we disallowed it entirely, now we allow it with no flags. The surrounding diffs are all effects of generating the same mul with a different operand order, and then doing simple DCE.

The loss of the inbounds is unfortunate, but even there, we can recover most of those once we actually treat branch-on-poison as immediate UB.

Upon further investigation and discussion,
this is actually the opposite direction from what we should be taking,
and this direction wouldn't solve the motivational problem anyway.

Additionally, some more (polly) tests have escaped being updated.
So, let's just take a step back here.
