Dan Gohman 198fbdadcf Revert the rule that considers comparisons between two pointers in the
same object to be a non-capture; Duncan pointed out a way that such
a comparison could be a capture.

Make the rule that considers a comparison against null more specific,
and only consider noalias return values compared against null. This
still supports test/Transforms/GVN/nonescaping-malloc.ll, and is not
susceptible to the problem Duncan pointed out with noalias arguments.

Analysis Opportunities:

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

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.
