Looking at the existing users of the new pass manager may be useful. See
BackendUtil.cpp for how Clang sets up the new pass manager, and
NewPMDriver.cpp for how opt sets it up.

There should be no need to initialize individual passes, although you can
inject your own analyses (e.g. alias analysis).
