    Reapply my if-conversion cleanup from svn r106939 with fixes. · 1e5da550
    Bob Wilson authored
    There are 2 changes relative to the previous version of the patch:
    
    1) For the "simple" if-conversion case, there's no need to worry about
    RemoveExtraEdges not handling an unanalyzable branch.  Predicated terminators
    are ignored in this context, so RemoveExtraEdges does the right thing.
    This might break someday if we ever treat indirect branches (BRIND) as
    predicable, but for now, I just removed this part of the patch, because
    in the case where we do not add an unconditional branch, we rely on keeping
    the fall-through edge to CvtBBI (which is empty after this transformation).
    
    The change relative to the previous patch is:

       RemoveExtraEdges(BBI);
     
       // Update block info. BB can be iteratively if-converted.
    
    
    2) My patch exposed a bug in the code for merging the tail of a "diamond",
    which had previously never been exercised.  The code was simply checking that
    the tail had a single predecessor, but there was a case in
    MultiSource/Benchmarks/VersaBench/dbms where that single predecessor was
    neither edge of the diamond.  I added the following change to check for
    that:

    With these fixes, I was able to run all the SingleSource and MultiSource
    tests successfully.
