Let MemoryAccess remember its purpose
There are three possible reasons to add a memory memory access: For explicit load and stores, for llvm::Value defs/uses, and to emulate PHI nodes (the latter two called implicit accesses). Previously MemoryAccess only stored IsPHI. Register accesses could be identified through the isScalar() method if it was no IsPHI. isScalar() determined the number of dimensions of the underlaying array, scalars represented by zero dimensions. For the work on de-LICM, implicit accesses can have more than zero dimensions, making the distinction of isScalars() useless, hence now stored explicitly in the MemoryAccess. Instead, we replace it by isImplicit() and avoid the term scalar for zero-dimensional arrays as it might be confused with llvm::Value which are also often referred to as scalars (or alternatively, as registers). No behavioral change intended, under the condition that it was impossible to create explicit accesses to zero-dimensional "arrays". llvm-svn: 248616
