Allow PPC B and BLR to be if-converted into some predicated forms
This enables us to form predicated branches (which are the same conditional branches we had before) and also a larger set of predicated returns (including instructions like bdnzlr which is a conditional return and loop-counter decrement all in one). At the moment, if conversion does not capture all possible opportunities. A simple example is provided in early-ret2.ll, where if conversion forms one predicated return, and then the PPCEarlyReturn pass picks up the other one. So, at least for now, we'll keep both mechanisms. llvm-svn: 179134
