Log:
[SCEV] Fix predicate usage in computeExitLimitFromICmp

In this method, we invoke `SimplifyICmpOperands` which takes the `Cond` predicate
by reference and may change it along with `LHS` and `RHS` SCEVs. But then we invoke
`computeShiftCompareExitLimit` with Values from which the SCEVs have been derived,
these Values have not been modified while `Cond` could be.

One of possible outcomes of this is that we may falsely prove that an infinite loop ends
within some finite number of iterations.

In this patch, we save the original `Cond` and pass it along with original operands.
This logic may be removed in future once `computeShiftCompareExitLimit` works
with SCEVs instead of value operands.
