This is the first patch in a series intended for removing flag
-enable-new-pm=0 from lit tests. This is part of a bigger
effort of completely removing legacy code related to legacy
pass manager in favor of currently default new pass manager.
In this patch flag has been removed only from tests where no significant
change has been required because checks has been duplicated for
both PMs.

For each natural loop with multiple exit blocks, this pass creates a
new block N such that all exiting blocks now branch to N, and then
control flow is redistributed to all the original exit blocks.
The bulk of the tranformation is a new function introduced in
BasicBlockUtils that an redirect control flow from a set of incoming
blocks to a set of outgoing blocks via a common "hub".
This is a useful workaround for a limitation in the structurizer which
incorrectly orders blocks when processing a nest of loops. This pass
bypasses that issue by ensuring that each natural loop is recognized
as a separate region. Since the structurizer is a region pass, it no
longer sees a nest of loops in a single region, and instead processes
each "level" in the nesting as a separate region.
The AMDGPU backend provides a new option to enable this pass before
the structurizer, which may eventually be enabled by default.
