This patch attempts to scalarize the operand expressions of predicated
instructions if they were conditionally executed in the original loop. After
scalarization, the expressions will be sunk inside the blocks created for the
predicated instructions. The transformation essentially performs
un-if-conversion on the operands.
The cost model has been updated to determine if scalarization is profitable. It
compares the cost of a vectorized instruction, assuming it will be
if-converted, to the cost of the scalarized instruction, assuming that the
instructions corresponding to each vector lane will be sunk inside a predicated
block, possibly avoiding execution. If it's more profitable to scalarize the
entire expression tree feeding the predicated instruction, the expression will
be scalarized; otherwise, it will be vectorized. We only consider the cost of
the entire expression to accurately estimate the cost of the required
insertelement and extractelement instructions.

This patch modifies the cost calculation of predicated instructions (div and
rem) to avoid the accumulation of rounding errors due to multiple truncating
integer divisions. The calculation for predicated stores will be addressed in a
follow-on patch since we currently don't scale the cost of predicated stores by
block probability.
