AANonNull is now the first AA that is always queried via the new APIs
and not created manually. Others will follow shortly to avoid trivial
AAs whenever possible.
This commit introduced some helper logic that will make it simpler to
port the next one. It also untangles AADereferenceable and AANonNull
such that the former does not keep a handle on the latter. Finally,
we stop deducing `nonnull` for `undef`, which was incorrect.
It was never really useful to track #iterations, though it helped during
the initial development. What we should track, in a follow up, are
potentially #updates. That is also what we should restrict instead of
the #iterations.
Derive the mustprogress attribute based on the willreturn attribute
or the fact that all callers are mustprogress.

This resolves a recent regression introduced by a bug fix and allows us
to use dominating write information (formerly HasBeenWrittenTo
information) to skip potential interfering accesses.
Generally, there are two changes here:
1) If we have dominating writes they form a chain and we can look at the
least one to minimize the distance between the write and the (read)
access in question.
2) If such a least dominating write exists, we can ignore writes in
other functions as long as they cannot be reached from code between
this write and the (read) access in question.
We have all the tools available to make such queries and the positive
tests show the result. Note that the negative test from the bug fix is
still in tree and not affected.
As a side-effect, we can remove the (arbitrary) treshold now on the
number of interfering accesses since we do not iterate over dominating
ones anymore.
This switches everything to use the memory attribute proposed in
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-unify-memory-effect-attributes/65579.
The old argmemonly, inaccessiblememonly and inaccessiblemem_or_argmemonly
attributes are dropped. The readnone, readonly and writeonly attributes
are restricted to parameters only.
The old attributes are auto-upgraded both in bitcode and IR.
The bitcode upgrade is a policy requirement that has to be retained
indefinitely. The IR upgrade is mainly there so it's not necessary
to update all tests using memory attributes in this patch, which
is already large enough. We could drop that part after migrating
tests, or retain it longer term, to make it easier to import IR
from older LLVM versions.
High-level Function/CallBase APIs like doesNotAccessMemory() or
setDoesNotAccessMemory() are mapped transparently to the memory
attribute. Code that directly manipulates attributes (e.g. via
AttributeList) on the other hand needs to switch to working with
the memory attribute instead.

When determining the initial value of the object, use the constant
folding API to load a given type at a given offset in the global
initializer. This makes it work for cases where the load doesn't
directly correspond to an aggregate member.

If a call base use will not capture a pointer we can approximate the
effects. This is important especially for readnone/only uses. Even
may-write uses are not too bad with reachability in place. Capturing
is the problem as we loose track of update sides.
If we have a constant aggregate, e.g., as an initializer, we usually
failed to extract the proper value/type from it. This patch provides the
size and offset information necessary to extract the right part of the
constant.
Revert "[Attributor] Teach AAPointerInfo to look into aggregates"
This reverts commit 844f6c5d03d58e7ac0c6b838e4a7834ac575ab9b and

that run openmp/libomptarget/test/offloading/bug49021.cpp.
