With t2DoLoopDec we can be left with some extra MOV's in the preheaders
of tail predicated loops. This removes them, in the same way we remove
other dead variables.

It turns our that the BranchFolder and IfCvt does not like unanalyzable
branches that fall-through. This means that removing the unconditional
branches from the end of tail predicated instruction can run into
asserts and verifier issues.
This effectively reverts 372eb2bbb6fb903ce76266e659dfefbaee67722b, but
adds handling to t2DoLoopEndDec which are not branches, so can be safely
skipped.
This treats low overhead loop branches the same as jump tables and
indirect branches in analyzeBranch - they cannot be analyzed but the
direct branches on the end of the block may be removed. This helps
remove the unnecessary branches earlier, which can help produce better
codegen (and change block layout in a number of cases).

Although this was something that I was hoping we would not have to do,
this patch makes t2DoLoopStartTP a terminator in order to keep it at the
end of it's block, so not allowing extra MVE instruction between it and
the end. With t2DoLoopStartTP's also starting tail predication regions,
it also marks them as having side effects. The t2DoLoopStart is still
not a terminator, giving it the extra scheduling freedom that can be
helpful, but now that we have a TP version they can be treated
differently.

This checks to see if the loop will likely become a tail predicated loop
and disables wls loop generation if so, as the likelihood for reverting
is currently too high. These should be fairly rare situations anyway due
to the way iterations and element counts are used during lowering. Just
not trying can alter how SCEV's are materialized however, leading to
different codegen.
It also adds a option to disable all while low overhead loops, for
debugging.
