Philip Reames 1b46dad5c2 [LoopPred] Handle a subset of NE comparison based latches
At the moment, LoopPredication completely bails out if it sees a latch of the form:
%cmp = icmp ne %iv, %N
br i1 %cmp, label %loop, label %exit
OR
%cmp = icmp ne %iv.next, %NPlus1
br i1 %cmp, label %loop, label %exit

This is unfortunate since this is exactly the form that LFTR likes to produce. So, go ahead and recognize simple cases where we can.

For pre-increment loops, we leverage the fact that LFTR likes canonical counters (i.e. those starting at zero) and a (presumed) range fact on RHS to discharge the check trivially.

For post-increment forms, the key insight is in remembering that LFTR had to insert a (N+1) for the RHS. CVP can hopefully prove that add nsw/nuw (if there's appropriate range on N to start with). This leaves us both with the post-inc IV and the RHS involving an nsw/nuw add, and SCEV can discharge that with no problem.

This does still need to be extended to handle non-one steps, or other harder patterns of variable (but range restricted) starting values. That'll come later.
