This patch changes the way blocks are managed by VPlan. Previously all
blocks reachable from entry would be cleaned up when a VPlan is
destroyed. With this patch, each VPlan keeps track of blocks created for
it in a list and this list is then used to delete all blocks in the list
when the VPlan is destroyed. To do so, block creation is funneled
through helpers in directly in VPlan.
The main advantage of doing so is it simplifies CFG transformations, as
those do not have to take care of deleting any blocks, just adjusting
the CFG. This helps to simplify
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/108378 and
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/106748.
This also simplifies handling of 'immutable' blocks a VPlan holds
references to, which at the moment only include the scalar header block.

Update C++ unit tests to use VPlanTestBase to construct initial VPlan,
using a constructor that creates the VP blocks directly in the
constructor.
Split off from and in preparation for
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/120918.
As a first step to move towards modeling the full skeleton in VPlan,
start by wrapping IR blocks created during legacy skeleton creation in
VPIRBasicBlocks and hook them into the VPlan. This means the skeleton
CFG is represented in VPlan, just before execute. This allows moving
parts of skeleton creation into recipes in the VPBBs gradually.
Note that this allows retiring some manual DT updates, as this will be
handled automatically during VPlan execution.

Update VPlan to include the scalar loop header. This allows retiring
VPLiveOut, as the remaining live-outs can now be handled by adding
operands to the wrapped phis in the scalar loop header.
Note that the current version only includes the scalar loop header, no
other loop blocks and also does not wrap it in a region block.

Unify VPlan verifiers in verifyVPlanIsValid. This adds verification for
various properties on blocks to the verifier used for VPlans generated
by the inner loop vectorizer. It also adds def-use checks for the
verifier used in the VPlan native path.
This drops the separate flag to enable HCFG verification. Instead, all
VPlans are verified once they have been created, if assertions are
enabled.
This also removes VPWidenPHIRecipe from VPHeaderPHIRecipe; it is used to
model any phi node in the native path.
This patch adds a new preheader block the VPlan to place SCEV expansions
expansions like the trip count. This preheader block is disconnected
at the moment, as the bypass blocks of the skeleton are not yet modeled
in VPlan.
The preheader block is executed before skeleton creation, so the SCEV
expansion results can be used during skeleton creation. At the moment,
the trip count expression and induction steps are expanded in the new
preheader. The remainder of SCEV expansions will be moved gradually in
the future.
D147965 will update skeleton creation to use the steps expanded in the
pre-header to fix#58811.
