    Convert the TargetTransformInfo from an immutable pass with dynamic · 539edf4e

    interfaces which could be extracted from it, and must be provided on
    construction, to a chained analysis group.
    
    The end goal here is that TTI works much like AA -- there is a baseline
    "no-op" and target independent pass which is in the group, and each
    target can expose a target-specific pass in the group. These passes will
    naturally chain allowing each target-specific pass to delegate to the
    generic pass as needed.
    
    In particular, this will allow a much simpler interface for passes that
    would like to use TTI -- they can have a hard dependency on TTI and it
    will just be satisfied by the stub implementation when that is all that
    is available.
    
    This patch is a WIP however. In particular, the "stub" pass is actually
    the one and only pass, and everything there is implemented by delegating
    to the target-provided interfaces. As a consequence the tools still have
    to explicitly construct the pass. Switching targets to provide custom
    passes and sinking the stub behavior into the NoTTI pass is the next
    step.
