[InstCombine] create and use a pass options container

Summary

This is a cleanup/modernization patch requested in D144045 to make loop analysis a proper optional parameter to the pass rather than a semi-arbitrary value inherited via the pass pipeline.

It's a bit more complicated than the recent patch I started copying from (D143980) because InstCombine already has an option for MaxIterations (added with D71145).

I debated just deleting that option, but it was used by a pair of existing tests, so I put it into a struct (code largely copied from SimplifyCFG's implementation) to make the code more flexible for future options enhancements.

I didn't alter the pass manager invocations of InstCombine in this patch because the patch was already getting big, but that could be a small follow-up.

This should be initialized to nullptr. We should not use LoopInfo unless UseLoopInfo is set.

Make sure I am understanding correctly - if we do this:

LoopInfo *LI = nullptr;
if (Options.UseLoopInfo) {
  LI = AM.getCachedResult<LoopAnalysis>(F);
  if (!LI)
    LI = &AM.getResult<LoopAnalysis>(F);
}

...then we must update PassBuilderPipelines in this patch too to avoid regressions.
I was intentionally trying to keep this part functionally the same as before to reduce risk, and then change it in a follow-up patch.

I see, fine to do in a followup.

AFAICT the option is always disabled in the default pipeline. Are there any plans to enable it at some point?

No, the option and LoopInfo use in InstCombine will be removed. The relevant code has been moved to LICM.
