This patch implements the `llvm.loop.estimated_trip_count` metadata discussed in [[RFC] Fix Loop Transformations to Preserve Block Frequencies](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-fix-loop-transformations-to-preserve-block-frequencies/85785). As the RFC explains, that metadata enables future patches, such as PR #128785, to fix block frequency issues without losing estimated trip counts.
This directory contains testcases that the verifier is supposed to detect as malformed LLVM code. Testcases for situations that the verifier incorrectly identifies as malformed should go in the test/Assembler directory.
