A naive SCEV visitor not linear in the number of SCEV expressions. For an expression like x*x, "x" will be visited twice.  If x is itself an expression like x*x, that will be visited twice, etc, and the overall runtime is O(2^N) in the number of SCEV expressions.

To prevent this from happening, add a cache, so we only visit each SCEV expression once.

Not sure this is the best solution. Maybe we can instead check whether the SCEV is scop-invariant (in which case we never need to map the value). But we don't have a utility for that at the moment.
