LOG: [flang] Wire allocation-placement into the optimizer pipeline (default off) - memory passes unification [3/5] (#210745)

Add a hidden -enable-allocation-placement flag that, when set, replaces
the stack-arrays and memory-allocation-opt passes in the default FIR
optimizer pipeline with the unified allocation-placement pass. The flag
is off by default, so the legacy passes remain the default path and
behavior is unchanged.

When enabled, the pass runs with its default byte-size thresholds; the
-fstack-arrays strategy is forwarded through the new stackArrays option.
