Backport fix for PR 32044 (final value replacement too aggressive) to gcc 4.3

Hello,

PR 32044[1] was initially reported against gcc 4.3, but the fix only went
into trunk.  Do you consider it feasible to backport this fix?

A patch for 4.3.2 can be found below.

Best regards
Uwe

* tree-scalar-evolution.h (expression_expensive_p): Declare.
* tree-scalar-evolution.c (expression_expensive_p): New function.
(scev_const_prop): Avoid introducing expensive expressions.
* tree-ssa-loop-ivopts.c (may_eliminate_iv): Ditto.

* gcc.dg/pr34027-1.c: Change outcome.
* gcc.dg/tree-ssa/pr32044.c: New test.

cherry picked from svn://gcc.gnu.org/svn/gcc/trunk, rev 142719 and adapted to
apply on gcc 4.3.2
