[PATCH] SCEV: Make the final add of an inbounds GEP nuw if we know that the index is positive.

Hi atrick,

We can't do this for the general case as saying a GEP with a negative index
doesn't have unsigned wrap isn't valid for negative indices.
  %gep = getelementptr inbounds i32* %p, i64 -1

But an inbounds GEP cannot run past the end of address space. So we check for
the very common case of a positive index and make GEPs derived from that NUW.
Together with Andy's recent non-unit stride work this lets us analyze loops
like

  void foo3(int *a, int *b) {
    for (; a < b; a++) {}
  }

PR12375, PR12376.
