Create a ScalarEvolution-based AliasAnalysis implementation.

This is a simple AliasAnalysis implementation which works by making
ScalarEvolution queries. ScalarEvolution has a more complete understanding
of arithmetic than BasicAA's collection of ad-hoc checks, so it handles
some cases that BasicAA misses, for example p[i] and p[i+1] within the
same iteration of a loop.

This is currently experimental. It may be that the main use for this pass
will be to help find cases where BasicAA can be profitably extended, or
to help in the development of the overall AliasAnalysis infrastructure,
however it's also possible that it could grow up to become a directly
useful pass.
