If left unchecked, the SLPVecrtorizer can move loads/stores below a stackrestore. The move can cause issues if the loads/stores have pointer operands from `alloca`s that are reset by the stackrestores. This patch adds the dependency check.

The check is conservative, in that it does not check if the pointer operands of the loads/stores are actually from an `alloca` that may be reset. We did not observe any SPECCPU2017 performance depredations so this simple fix seems sufficient.

The test could have been added to `llvm/test/Transforms/SLPVectorizer/X86/stacksave-dependence.ll`, but that test has not been updated to use opaque pointers. I am not inclined to add tests that still use typed pointers, or to refactor `llvm/test/Transforms/SLPVectorizer/X86/stacksave-dependence.ll` to use opaque pointers in this patch. If desired, I will open a different patch to refactor and consolidate the tests.
