a858f4fe0b [VPlan] Implement initial vector code generation support for simple outer loops.
Summary:
[VPlan] Implement vector code generation support for simple outer loops.

Context: Patch Series #1 for outer loop vectorization support in LV  using VPlan. (RFC: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-December/119523.html).
                                                          
This patch introduces vector code generation support for simple outer loops that are currently supported in the VPlanNativePath. Changes here essentially do the following:

  - force vector code generation using explicit vectorize_width

  - add conservative early returns in cost model and other places for VPlanNativePath

  - add code for setting up outer loop inductions 

  - support for widening non-induction PHIs that can result from inner loops and uniform conditional branches

  - support for generating uniform inner branches

We plan to add a handful C outer loop executable tests once the initial code generation support is committed. This patch is expected to be NFC for the inner loop vectorizer path. Since we are moving in the direction of supporting outer loop vectorization in LV, it may also be time to rename classes such as InnerLoopVectorizer.

26b584c691 Remove \brief commands from doxygen comments.
We've been running doxygen with the autobrief option for a couple of
years now. This makes the \brief markers into our comments
redundant. Since they are a visual distraction and we don't want to
encourage more \brief markers in new code either, this patch removes
them all.

8784c51c37 [NFC][LV][LoopUtil] Move LoopVectorizationLegality to its own file
Summary:
This is a follow up to D45420 (included here since it is still under review and this change is dependent on that) and D45072 (committed).
Actual change for this patch is LoopVectorize* and cmakefile. All others are all from D45420.

LoopVectorizationLegality is an analysis and thus really belongs to Analysis tree. It is modular enough and it is reusable enough ---- we can further improve those aspects once uses outside of LV picks up.

Hopefully, this will make it easier for people familiar with vectorization theory, but not necessarily LV itself to contribute, by lowering the volume of code they should deal with. We probably should start adding some code in LV to check its own capability (i.e., vectorization is legal but LV is not ready to handle it) and then bail out.
