I noticed that rs4gc is not stripping a number of memory aliasing related attributes. We do strip some from call sites, but don't strip the same ones from declarations or parameters.
Why do we need to strip these? Two answers:
Safepoints conceptually read and write to the entire garbage collected heap in the physical model. We need this to preserve ordering of all loads and stores with respect to possible relocation.
We can infer other attributes from these. For instance, readnone can imply both nofree and nosync. Both of which don't hold after physical rewriting.
Note: This exposed a latent issue which was fixed a couple weeks back in 01801d5274.

The safepoints being inserted exists to free memory, or coordinate with another thread to do so. Thus, we must strip any inferred attributes and reinfer them after the lowering.
I'm not aware of any active miscompiles caused by this, but since I'm working on strengthening inference of both and leveraging them in the optimization decisions, I figured a bit of future proofing was warranted.
