[Polly][ScopInfo] Lazy Scop instantiation (#179535)
The old NPM was using ScopInfo pass introduced in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D20962, which in contrast to the LPM was using
ScopInfoRegionPass. ScopInfo was instantiating all Scop objects
immediately. After codegenning, all Scop objects need to be recomputed
anyway, making this approach wastful. The PhaseManager inherited this
behaviour from the NPM, leading to some concerns.

Replace the instantiate-all behavior of ScopInfo with an on-demand
instantiation. SCoPs now must be iterated using ScopDetection instead
using ScopInfo, but only some unsed legacy NPM passes (now removed) were
doing that anyway.

Polly - Polyhedral optimizations for LLVM
-----------------------------------------
http://polly.llvm.org/

Polly uses a mathematical representation, the polyhedral model, to represent and
transform loops and other control flow structures. Using an abstract
representation it is possible to reason about transformations in a more general
way and to use highly optimized linear programming libraries to figure out the
optimal loop structure. These transformations can be used to do constant
propagation through arrays, remove dead loop iterations, optimize loops for
cache locality, optimize arrays, apply advanced automatic parallelization, drive
vectorization, or they can be used to do software pipelining.
