68c1eeb4ba [ArgPromotion] Make implementation offset based
This rewrites ArgPromotion to be based on offsets rather than GEP
structure. We inspect all loads at constant offsets and remember
which types are loaded at which offsets. Then we promote based on
those types.

This generalizes ArgPromotion to work with bitcasted loads, and
is compatible with opaque pointers.

This patch also fixes incorrect handling of alignment during
argument promotion. Previously, the implementation only checked
that the pointer is dereferenceable, but was happy to speculate
overaligned loads. (I would have fixed this separately in advance,
but I found this hard to do with the previous implementation
approach).

b896334834 [ArgPromotion] Check dereferenceability on argument as well
Before walking all the callers, check whether we have a
dereferenceable attribute directly on the argument.

Also make it clearer that the code currently does not treat
alignment correctly.

c2b476767e [ArgPromotion] Test dereferenceable annotation on callee (NFC)
While we check dereferenceability of all callers, we don't check
dereferenceability annotations on the callee.

a24cc48bc6 [ArgPromotion] Add alignment test (NFC)
This shows a miscompile in the current argpromotion implementation:
We may speculatively execute overaligned loads.
