Silviu Baranga 5a397274ef [SCEV] Improve the run-time checking of the NoWrap predicate
Summary:
This implements a new method of run-time checking the NoWrap
SCEV predicates, which should be easier to optimize and nicer
for targets that don't correctly handle multiplication/addition
of large integer types (like i128).

If the AddRec is {a,+,b} and the backedge taken count is c,
the idea is to check that |b| * c doesn't have unsigned overflow,
and depending on the sign of b, that:

   a + |b| * c >= a (b >= 0) or
   a - |b| * c <= a (b <= 0)

where the comparisons above are signed or unsigned, depending on
the flag that we're checking.

The advantage of doing this is that we avoid extending to a larger
type and we avoid the multiplication of large types (multiplying
i128 can be expensive).
