Move vector pointer generation to a separate VPVectorPointerRecipe.
This untangles address computation from the memory recipes future
and is also needed to enable explicit unrolling in VPlan.

IR is now always parsed in opaque pointer mode, unless
-opaque-pointers=0 is explicitly given. There is no automatic
detection of typed pointers anymore.
The -opaque-pointers=0 option is added to any remaining IR tests
that haven't been migrated yet.

This patch is in preparation for enabling vectorisation with tail-folding
by default for SVE targets. Once we do that many existing tests will
break that depend upon having normal unpredicated vector loops. For
all such tests I have added the flag:
-prefer-predicate-over-epilogue=scalar-epilogue

After D98856 these tests will by default break (fatal_error) if any of
the wrong interfaces are used, so there's no longer a need to have a
RUN line that checks for a warning message emitted by the compiler.
This patch adds support for reverse loop vectorization.
It is possible to vectorize the following loop:
```
for (int i = n-1; i >= 0; --i)
a[i] = b[i] + 1.0;
```
with fixed or scalable vector.
The loop-vectorizer will use 'reverse' on the loads/stores to make
sure the lanes themselves are also handled in the right order.
This patch adds support for scalable vector on IRBuilder interface to
create a reverse vector. The IR function
CreateVectorReverse lowers to experimental.vector.reverse for scalable vector
and keedp the original behavior for fixed vector using shuffle reverse.
