Add rewrite by-reference parameter pass
Summary: This pass detangles induction variables from functions, which take variables by reference. Most fortran functions compiled with gfortran pass variables by reference. Unfortunately a common pattern, printf calls of induction variables, prevent in this situation the promotion of the induction variable to a register, which again inhibits any kind of loop analysis. To work around this issue we developed a specialized pass which introduces separate alloca slots for known-read-only references, which indicate the mem2reg pass that the induction variables can be promoted to registers and consquently enable SCEV to work. We currently hardcode the information that a function _gfortran_transfer_integer_write does not read its second parameter, as dragonegg does not add the right annotations and we cannot change old dragonegg releases. Hopefully flang will produce the right annotations.
