[LICM] Add a diagnostic analysis for identifying alias information
Summary: Currently, in LICM, we use the alias set tracker to identify if the instruction (we're interested in hoisting) aliases with instruction that modifies that memory location. This patch adds an LICM alias analysis diagnostic tool that checks the mod ref info of the instruction we are interested in hoisting/sinking, with every instruction in the loop. Because of O(N^2) complexity this is now only a diagnostic tool to show the limitation we have with the alias set tracker and is OFF by default. Test cases show the difference with the diagnostic analysis tool, where we're able to hoist out loads and readonly + argmemonly calls from the loop, where the alias set tracker analysis is not able to hoist these instructions out.
