Tobias Grosser 2d3d4ec860 executeScopConditionally: Introduce special exiting block
When introducing separate control flow for the original and optimized code we
introduce now a special 'ExitingBlock':

      \   /
    EnteringBB
        |
    SplitBlock---------\
   _____|_____         |
  /  EntryBB  \    StartBlock
  |  (region) |        |
  \_ExitingBB_/   ExitingBlock
        |              |
    MergeBlock---------/
        |
      ExitBB
      /    \

This 'ExitingBlock' contains code such as the final_reloads for scalars, which
previously were just added to whichever statement/loop_exit/branch-merge block
had been generated last. Having an explicit basic block makes it easier to
find these constructs when looking at the CFG.

Polly - Polyhedral optimizations for LLVM
-----------------------------------------
http://polly.llvm.org/

Polly uses a mathematical representation, the polyhedral model, to represent and
transform loops and other control flow structures. Using an abstract
representation it is possible to reason about transformations in a more general
way and to use highly optimized linear programming libraries to figure out the
optimal loop structure. These transformations can be used to do constant
propagation through arrays, remove dead loop iterations, optimize loops for
cache locality, optimize arrays, apply advanced automatic parallelization, drive
vectorization, or they can be used to do software pipelining.
