This patch implements the enhancement proposed by
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/59312.
Suppose we have following code
v0 = load %addr
br %LoadBB
LoadBB:
v1 = load %addr
...
PredBB:
...
br %cond, label %LoadBB, label %SuccBB
SuccBB:
v2 = load %addr
...
Instruction v1 in LoadBB is partially redundant, edge (PredBB, LoadBB) is a
critical edge. SuccBB is another successor of PredBB, it contains another load
v2 which is identical to v1. Current GVN splits the critical edge
(PredBB, LoadBB) and inserts a new load in it. A better method is move the load
of v2 into PredBB, then v1 can be changed to a PHI instruction.
If there are two or more similar predecessors, like the test case in the bug
entry, current GVN simply gives up because otherwise it needs to split multiple
critical edges. But we can move all loads in successor blocks into predecessors.

Make MaterializeAdjustedValue() responsible for adjusting load
metadata in all cases, so it also covers the non-local case.
In conjunction with that, we no longer need to call
patchReplacementInstruction() for the local case, which would
unnecessarily drop metadata if the replacement value just happened
to be a load (without actual load CSE).
When reusing a load in a way that requires coercion (i.e. casts or
bit extraction) we currently fail to adjust metadata. Unfortunately,
none of our existing tooling for this is really suitable, because
combineMetadataForCSE() expects both loads to have the same type.
In this case we may work on loads of different types and possibly
offset memory location.
As such, what this patch does is to simply drop all metadata, with
the following exceptions:
* Metadata for which violation is known to always cause UB.
* If the load is !noundef, keep all metadata, as this will turn
poison-generating metadata into UB as well.
This fixes the miscompile that was exposed by D146629.

I believe !dereferencable violation is immediate undefined behavior,
but this was not explicitly spelled out in LangRef. We already
assume that !dereferenceable is implicitly !noundef and cannot
return poison in isGuaranteedNotToBeUndefOrPoison().
The reason why we made dereferenceable implicitly noundef is that
the purpose of this metadata is to allow speculation, and that
would not be legal on a potential poison pointer.
