[PATCH] Improve debug info in ivopts optimized loops (PR debug/90231)

Hi!

As mentioned in the PR, the following patch attempts to address two issues.
In remove_unused_ivs we first find the best iv_cand (we prefer primarily the
same step, next same mode and lastly constant base) and only then call
get_computation_at to determine the replacement expression.  Unfortunately,
in various cases get_computation_at can return NULL_TREE and in that case we
don't try any other candidate and just leave the vars for debug as is, which
results in => NULL and the IVs <optimized away>.

The following patch will only consider candidates for which
get_computation_at succeeds, while it can be slower, it can handle more
cases.  Perhaps alternative would be to have two passes, pick up the best
candidate without calling get_computation_at, calling it on the best
candidate and if that fails, retry the best candidate search with calling
get_computation_at.

Another thing is that get_computation_at can only handle cases where
use can be expressed as ubase + (var - cbase) * ratio for integral ratio.
In the PR testcase we don't have any, one (the one we pick as best)
has a ratio 1/15 and the other 1/4.  Using a division in ivopts at runtime
is hardly ever desirable, but for debug info we don't mind that, all we need
to ensure is that we don't result in wrong-debug.
The patch implements expressing use as ubase + (var - cbase) / ratio for
these debug info only uses, but so far requires that if the use IV couldn't
wrap around, that the candidate (var - cbase) can't wrap around either,
which should be true whenever the candidate type is IMHO at least
ceil_log2 (ratio) bits larger than the use type.  Do I need to punt if
!use->iv->no_overflow, or is
ubase + (utype) ((var - cbase) / ratio) computation safe even if it wraps?
And as questioned in the PR, are there other cases where we can safely
assume no wrap (e.g. use it if use->iv->no_overflow && cand->iv->no_overflow
without those extra precision checks)?

Anyway, bootstrapped/regtested successfully on x86_64-linux and i686-linux.

Comparing bootstrapped cc1plus without and with this patch (the former with
the patch applied after bootstrap and stage3 rebuilt, so that .text etc. is
identical) shows:

so .debug_info is 3840 bytes larger and .debug_loc is 173606 bytes larger
(0.15%), so there are some changes with this, but not huge amount of them,
though .debug_loc size changed in 217 gcc/*.o files out of 474.

	PR debug/90231
	* tree-ssa-loop-ivopts.c (get_debug_computation_at): New function.
	(remove_unused_ivs): Use it instead of get_computation_at.  When
	choosing best candidate, only consider candidates where
	get_debug_computation_at actually returns non-NULL.
