We call tail-call-elim near the beginning of the pipeline,
but that is too early to annotate calls that get added later.
In the motivating case from issue #47852, the missing 'tail'
on memset leads to sub-optimal codegen.
I experimented with removing the early instance of
tail-call-elim instead of just adding another pass, but that
appears to be slightly worse for compile-time:
+0.15% vs. +0.08% time.
"tailcall" shows adding the pass; "tailcall2" shows moving
the pass to later, then adding the original early pass back
(so 1596886802 is functionally equivalent to 180b0439dc ):

Note that there was an effort to split the tail call functionality
into 2 passes - that could help reduce compile-time if we find
that this change costs more in compile-time than expected based
on the preliminary testing:

Now that integer min/max intrinsics have good support in both
InstCombine and other passes, start canonicalizing SPF min/max
to intrinsic min/max.
Once this sticks, we can stop matching SPF min/max in various
places, and can remove hacks we have for preventing infinite loops
and breaking of SPF canonicalization.

These are versions of a function that regressed with:
rGf2fbdf76d8d0
That particular problem occurs with an instcombine-simplifycfg-instcombine
sequence, but we can show that it exists within instcombine only with
other variations of the pattern.
