After https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/153643, there may be a
BranchOnCond with constant condition in the entry block.
Simplify those in removeBranchOnConst. This removes a number of
redundant conditional branch from entry blocks.
In some cases, it may also make the original scalar loop unreachable,
because we know it will never execute. In that case, we need to remove
the loop from LoopInfo, because all unreachable blocks may dominate each
other, making LoopInfo invalid. In those cases, we can also completely
remove the loop, for which I'll share a follow-up patch.
Depends on https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/153643.

This patch adds a new VPlan-based addMinimumIterationCheck, which
replaced the ILV version for the non-epilogue case.
The VPlan-based version constructs a SCEV expression to compute the
minimum iterations, use that to check if the check is known true or
false. Otherwise it creates a VPExpandSCEV recipe and emits a
compare-and-branch.
When using epilogue vectorization, we still need to create the minimum
trip-count-check during the legacy skeleton creation. The patch moves
the definitions out of ILV.

This changes the branch condition to use the AVL's backedge value
instead of the EVL-based IV.
This allows us to emit bnez on RISC-V and removes a use of the trip
count, which should reduce register pressure.
To match phis with VPlanPatternMatch I've had to relax the assert that
the number of operands must exactly match the pattern for the Phi
opcode, and I've copied over m_ZExtOrSelf from the LLVM IR
PatternMatch.h.
Fixes#151459
Directly emit shl instead of a multiply if VF * Step is a power-of-2. The
main motivation here is to prepare the code and test for directly
generating and expanding a SCEV expression of the minimum iteration
count. SCEVExpander will directly emit shl for multiplies with
powers-of-2.
InstCombine will also performs this combine, so end-to-end this should
effectively by NFC.

This reverts commit 1c7c8e3ad39957285524ff116d9a6aec0d9b62f9.
Recommit with a fix for the verifier error caused for EVL recipes.
Extra test coverage added in 6f939da60e.
Materialize the vector trip count computation using VPInstruction
instead of directly creating IR. This is one of the last few steps
needed to model the full vector skeleton in VPlan. It also simplifies
vector-trip count computations for scalable vectors, as we can re-use
the UF x VF computation.

We have been tracking the performance of EVL tail folding in the loop
vectorizer on RISC-V for a while now, and after much hard work from
various contributors we think it should be generally profitable to
enable by default now.
With tail folding there is a 21% improvement on 525.x264_r on SPEC CPU
2017 on the BPI-F3 (-march=rva22u64_v -O3 -flto), as well as a 30%
geomean codesize reduction on SPEC and TSVC, with no significant
regressions detected.
Now that we are early into the LLVM 22.x development cycle it seems like
a good time to enable it to catch any issues. There are still more EVL
related items of work being tracked in #123069, which should continue to
improve performance.
VPVectorPointer for part 0 is just the pointer operand. Simplify it
after unrolling. This removes a large number of redundant GEPs with
index 0.

This put the onus on the caller to ensure the result type is big enough.
In the unlikely event a cropped result is required then explicitly
truncate a safe value.
Vectorizing of fminimumnum and fminimumnum have not support yet. Let's
add the testcase for it now, and we will update the testcase when we
support it.
