LOG: [LVI][ValueTracking] Take UB-implying attributes into account in `isSafeToSpeculativelyExecute` (#137604)

Closes https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/137582.

In the original case, LVI uses the edge information in `%entry ->
%if.end` to get a more precise result. However, since the call to `smin`
has an `noundef` return attribute, an immediate UB will be triggered
after optimization.

Currently, `isSafeToSpeculativelyExecuteWithOpcode(%min)` returns true
because
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/6a288c1e32351d4be3b7630841af078fa1c3bb8b
only checks whether the function is speculatable. However, it is not
enough in this case.

This patch takes UB-implying attributes into account if
`IgnoreUBImplyingAttrs` is set to false. If it is set to true, the
caller is responsible for correctly propagating UB-implying attributes.
