Should cover most of the tests for GVN, GVNHoist, GVNSink, GlobalOpt,
GlobalSplit, InstCombine, Reassociate, SROA and TailCallElim that
had not been updated earlier.
As my goal is to remove at least _some_ functions from the static list
in MemoryBuiltins.cpp, these tests either need to run inferattrs or
statically declare these attributes to keep passing. A couple of tests
had alternate cases which are no longer meaningful, e.g.
`malloc-load-removal.ll`.

The malloc to global transform currently determines the type of the
global by looking at bitcasts of the malloc. This is limited (the
transform fails if there are multiple different types) and
incompatible with opaque pointers.
My initial approach was to construct an appropriate struct type
based on usage in loads/stores. What this patch does instead is
to always create an [i8 x AllocSize] global, without trying to
guess types at all.
This does mean that other transforms that require a certain global
type may break. I fixed two of these in D117034 and D117223, which
I believe should be sufficient to avoid regressions. In particular,
the global SRA change should end up splitting the global into
naturally-typed sub-globals, at which point all other optimizations
should work.
