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.

Refactors VPVectorPointerRecipe to use the VF VPValue to obtain the
runtime VF, similar to #95305.
Since only reverse vector pointers require the runtime VF, the patch
sets VPUnrollPart::PartOpIndex to 1 for vector pointers and 2 for
reverse vector pointers. As a result, the generation of reverse vector
pointers is moved into a separate recipe.
This patch implements explicit unrolling by UF as VPlan transform. In
follow up patches this will allow simplifying VPTransform state (no need
to store unrolled parts) as well as recipe execution (no need to
generate code for multiple parts in an each recipe). It also allows for
more general optimziations (e.g. avoid generating code for recipes that
are uniform-across parts).
It also unifies the logic dealing with unrolled parts in a single place,
rather than spreading it out across multiple places (e.g. VPlan post
processing for header-phi recipes previously.)
In the initial implementation, a number of recipes still take the
unrolled part as additional, optional argument, if their execution
depends on the unrolled part.
The computation for start/step values for scalable inductions changed
slightly. Previously the step would be computed as scalar and then
splatted, now vscale gets splatted and multiplied by the step in a
vector mul.
This has been split off https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/94339
which also includes changes to simplify VPTransfomState and recipes'
::execute.
The current version mostly leaves existing ::execute untouched and
instead sets VPTransfomState::UF to 1.
A follow-up patch will clean up all references to VPTransformState::UF.
Another follow-up patch will simplify VPTransformState to only store a
single vector value per VPValue.
