    Fix AddAliasScopeMetadata again - alias.scope must be a complete description · cbb85f24
    Hal Finkel authored
    I thought that I had fixed this problem in r216818, but I did not do a very
    good job. The underlying issue is that when we add alias.scope metadata we are
    asserting that this metadata completely describes the aliasing relationships
    within the current aliasing scope domain, and so in the context of translating
    noalias argument attributes, the pointers must all be based on noalias
    arguments (as underlying objects) and have no other kind of underlying object.
    In r216818 excluding appropriate accesses from getting alias.scope metadata is
    done by looking for underlying objects that are not identified function-local
    objects -- but that's wrong because allocas, etc. are also function-local
    objects and we need to explicitly check that all underlying objects are the
    noalias arguments for which we're adding metadata aliasing scopes.
    
    This fixes the underlying-object check for adding alias.scope metadata, and
    does some refactoring of the related capture-checking eligibility logic (and
    adds more comments; hopefully making everything a bit clearer).
    
    Fixes self-hosting on x86_64 with -mllvm -enable-noalias-to-md-conversion (the
    feature is still disabled by default).
