[DSE,MemorySSA] Traverse use-def chain without MemSSA Walker.

For DSE with MemorySSA it is beneficial to manually traverse the
defining access, instead of using a MemorySSA walker, so we can
better control the number of steps together with other limits and
also weed out invalid/unprofitable paths early on.

This patch requires a follow-up patch to be most effective, which I will
share soon after putting this patch up.

This temporarily XFAIL's the limit tests, because we now explore more
MemoryDefs that may not alias/clobber the killing def. This will be
improved/fixed by the follow-up patch.

This patch also renames some `Dom*` variables to `Earlier*`, because the
dominance relation is not really used/important here and potentially
confusing.

This patch allows us to aggressively cut down compile time, geomean
-O3 -0.64%, ReleaseThinLTO -1.65%, at the expense of fewer stores
removed. Subsequent patches will increase the number of removed stores
again, while keeping compile-time in check.
