[PATCH] Optimize unrolled reductions in LoopStrengthReduce

[Eric Christopher]

FWIW I'm not such a huge fan of using register pressure heuristics in the
middle end, it has a tendency to hide code gen deficiencies or be
suboptimal in cases where we could do better if we did the optimization and
let code generation fold things together/MachineLICM/etc. I understand
where the desires come from, but if possible I like to optimize as hard as
we can in the middle end and clean it up using machine optimizations.

Yes, I know this isn't always practical, but...
