Wenlei He 60c642e74b [TLI] Per-function fveclib for math library used for vectorization
Summary:
Encode `-fveclib` setting as per-function attribute so it can threaded through to LTO backends. Accordingly per-function TLI now reads
the attributes and select available vector function list based on that. Now we also populate function list for all supported vector
libraries for the shared per-module `TargetLibraryInfoImpl`, so each function can select its available vector list independently but without
duplicating the vector function lists. Inlining between incompatbile vectlib attributed is also prohibited now.

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//

In test/Transforms/LoopStrengthReduce/quadradic-exit-value.ll, the
ScalarEvolution expression for %r is this:

  {1,+,3,+,2}<loop>

Outside the loop, this could be evaluated simply as (%n * %n), however
ScalarEvolution currently evaluates it as

  (-2 + (2 * (trunc i65 (((zext i64 (-2 + %n) to i65) * (zext i64 (-1 + %n) to i65)) /u 2) to i64)) + (3 * %n))

In addition to being much more complicated, it involves i65 arithmetic,
which is very inefficient when expanded into code.

//===---------------------------------------------------------------------===//

In formatValue in test/CodeGen/X86/lsr-delayed-fold.ll,

ScalarEvolution is forming this expression:

((trunc i64 (-1 * %arg5) to i32) + (trunc i64 %arg5 to i32) + (-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32)))

This could be folded to

(-1 * (trunc i64 undef to i32))
