This patch moves branch condition creation to enter the scalar epilogue
loop to VPlan. Modeling the branch in the middle block also requires
modeling the successor blocks. This is done using the recently
introduced VPIRBasicBlock.
Note that the middle.block is still created as part of the skeleton and
then patched in during VPlan execution. Unfortunately the skeleton needs
to create the middle.block early on, as it is also used for induction
resume value creation and is also needed to properly update the
dominator tree during skeleton creation.
After this patch lands, I plan to move induction resume value and phi
node creation in the scalar preheader to VPlan. Once that is done, we
should be able to create the middle.block in VPlan directly.
This is a re-worked version based on the earlier
https://reviews.llvm.org/D150398 and the main change is the use of
VPIRBasicBlock.
Depends on https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/92525

Use VPIRBasicBlock to wrap the middle block and implement patching up
branches in predecessors in VPIRBasicBlock::execute. The IR middle block
is only created after skeleton creation. Initially a regular
VPBasicBlock is created, which will later be replaced by a
VPIRBasicBlock once the middle IR basic block has been created.
Note that this slightly changes the order of instructions created in the
middle block; code generated by recipe execution in the middle block
will now be inserted before the terminator (and in between the compare
to used by the terminator). The original order will be restored in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/92651.
