[PM/LoopUnswitch] Begin teaching SimpleLoopUnswitch to use the new update API for dominators rather than doing manual, hacky updates.

Summary

This is just the first step, but in some ways the most important as it
moves the non-trivial unswitching to update the domtree rather than
fully recalculating it each time.

Subsequent patches should remove the custom update logic used by the
trivial unswitch and replace it with uses of the update API.

This also fixes a number of bugs I was seeing when testing non-trivial
unswitch due to it querying the quasi-correct dominator tree. Now the
tree is 100% correct and safe to query. That said, there are still more
bugs I can see with non-trivial unswitch just running over the test
suite, so more bugfix patches are needed as well.

Rebase and ping.

This is now the only patch needed for the new PM's unswitch to pass the LLVM
test suite with nontrivial unswitching enabled.

There may of course still be bugs here, but I think this is getting pretty
close.

The DT update mechanism gets rid of duplicates anyway (see LegalizeUpdates), so SuccSet should not be necessary (unless you expect a lot of duplicates at which point it can serve to save memory).

Looks good to me.
Thanks for the effort.
This version finally passes all the tests on our internal pipeline!
