This pass allows writing the LLVM-IR just before and after the Polly
passes to a file.
Dumping the IR before Polly helps reproducing bugs that occur in code
generated by clang. It is the only reliable way to get the IR that
triggers a bug. The alternative is to emit the IR with
clang -c -emit-llvm -S -o dump.ll
then pass it through all optimization passes
opt dump.ll -basicaa -sroa ... -S -o optdump.ll
to then reproduce the error with
opt optdump.ll -polly-opt-isl -polly-codegen -analyze
However, the IR is not the same. -O3 uses a PassBuilder than creates passes
with different parameters than the default.
Dumping the IR after Polly is useful to compare a miscompilation with
a known-good configuration.
