This patch removes all weight-related interfaces from BPI and replace
them by probability versions. With this patch, we won't use edge weight
anymore in either IR or MC passes. Edge probabilitiy is a better
representation in terms of CFG update and validation.

With r250345 and r250343, we start to observe the following failure
when bootstrap clang with lto and pgo:
PHI node entries do not match predecessors!

I will re-commit this if the bot does not recover.

Currently in JumpThreading pass, the branch weight metadata is not updated after CFG modification. Consider the jump threading on PredBB, BB, and SuccBB. After jump threading, the weight on BB->SuccBB should be adjusted as some of it is contributed by the edge PredBB->BB, which doesn't exist anymore. This patch tries to update the edge weight in metadata on BB->SuccBB by scaling it by 1 - Freq(PredBB->BB) / Freq(BB->SuccBB).
This is the third attempt to submit this patch, while the first two led to failures in some FDO tests. After investigation, it is the edge weight normalization that caused those failures. In this patch the edge weight normalization is fixed so that there is no zero weight in the output and the sum of all weights can fit in 32-bit integer. Several unit tests are added.
