[Passes] Run sinking/hoisting in SimplifyCFG earlier.

Hoisting and sinking instructions out of conditional blocks enables
additional vectorization by:

1. Executing memory accesses unconditionally.
2. Reducing the number of instructions that need predication.

After disabling early hoisting / sinking, we miss out on a few
vectorization opportunities. One of those is causing a ~10% performance
regression in one of the Geekbench benchmarks on AArch64.

This patch tires to recover the regression by running hoisting/sinking
as part of a SimplifyCFG run after LoopRotate and before LoopVectorize.

Note that in the legacy pass-manager, we run LoopRotate just before
vectorization again and there's no SimplifyCFG run in between, so the
sinking/hoisting may impact the later run on LoopRotate. But the impact
should be limited and the benefit of hosting/sinking at this stage
should outweigh the risk of not rotating.

Compile-time impact looks slightly positive for most cases.

NewPM-O3: geomean -0.19%
NewPM-ReleaseThinLTO: geoman -0.54%
NewPM-ReleaseLTO-g: geomean -0.03%

With a few benchmarks seeing a notable increase, but also some
improvements.

Alternative to D101290.
