Changes in directory llvm/lib/Transforms/Scalar:

LoopSimplify.cpp updated: 1.21 -> 1.22

---
Log message:

Add support to the loop canonicalization pass to make it transform loops to
have a SINGLE backedge.  This is useful to, for example, the -indvars pass.

This implements testcase LoopSimplify/single-backedge.ll and closes PR#34
