An algorithm for incrementally updating LoopInfo within a

LoopPassManager. The incremental update should be extremely cheap in
most cases and can be used in places where it's not feasible to
regenerate the entire loop forest.

- "Unloop" is a node in the loop tree whose last backedge has been removed.
- Perform reverse dataflow on the block inside Unloop to propagate the
  nearest loop from the block's successors.
- For reducible CFG, each block in unloop is visited exactly
  once. This is because unloop no longer has a backedge and blocks
  within subloops don't change parents.
- Immediate subloops are summarized by the nearest loop reachable from
  their exits or exits within nested subloops.
- At completion the unloop blocks each have a new parent loop, and
  each immediate subloop has a new parent.
