[RS4GC] Drop invalid metadata after pointers are relocated
Summary: After RS4GC, we should drop metadata that is no longer valid. These metadata is used by optimizations scheduled after RS4GC, and can cause a miscompile. One such metadata is invariant.load which is used by LICM sinking transform. After rewriting statepoints, the address of a load maybe relocated. With invariant.load metadata on a load instruction, LICM sinking assumes the loaded value (from a dererenceable address) to be invariant, and rematerializes the load operand and the load at the exit block. This transforms the IR to have an unrelocated use of the address after a statepoint, which is incorrect. Other metadata we conservatively remove are related to dereferenceability and noalias metadata. This patch drops such metadata on store and load instructions after rewriting statepoints.
