LOG: [VPlan] Split handleEarlyExits into countable and uncountable passes. NFC (#206017)

This allows us to remove UncountableExitStyle::NoUncountableExit, and
isolate it to just the uncountable exit path. This should make it easier
to choose a style from within VPlan alone later on.

This also allows us to plug UncountableExitStyle into a TTI hook or CLI
flag eventually, as I don't think we want to expose NoUncountableExit.
