Right now when we see -O# we add the corresponding 'default<O#>' into
the list of passes to run when translating legacy -pass-name. This has
the side effect of not using the default AA pipeline.
Instead, treat -O# as -passes='default<O#>', but don't allow any other
-passes or -pass-name. I think we can keep `opt -O#` as shorthand for
`opt -passes='default<O#>` but disallow anything more than just -O#.
Tests need to be updated to not use `opt -O# -pass-name`.

Summary:
When alias analysis is uncertain about the aliasing between any two accesses,
it will return MayAlias. This uncertainty from alias analysis restricts LICM
from proceeding further. In cases where alias analysis is uncertain we might
use loop versioning as an alternative.
Loop Versioning will create a version of the loop with aggressive aliasing
assumptions in addition to the original with conservative (default) aliasing
assumptions. The version of the loop making aggressive aliasing assumptions
will have all the memory accesses marked as no-alias. These two versions of
loop will be preceded by a memory runtime check. This runtime check consists
of bound checks for all unique memory accessed in loop, and it ensures the
lack of memory aliasing. The result of the runtime check determines which of
the loop versions is executed: If the runtime check detects any memory
aliasing, then the original loop is executed. Otherwise, the version with
aggressive aliasing assumptions is used.
The pass is off by default and can be enabled with command line option
-enable-loop-versioning-licm.
