Allow loops in non-affine subregions -- SCoP Detection This will allow the ScopDetection to detect non-affine regions that contain loops. All loops contained will be collected and are accessible to later passes in order to adjust the access functions. As the loops are non-affine and will not be part of the polyhedral representation later, all accesses that are variant in these loops have to be over approximated as non-affine accesses. They are therefore handled the same way as other non-affine accesses. Additionally, we do not count non-affine loops for the profitability heuristic, thus a region with only a non-affine loop will only be detected if the general detection of loop free regions is enabled.

LGTM.
How do we compute the set of memory locations that are touched by a non-affine approximated loop?
That is this part of the commit message:
"all accesses that are variant in these loops
have to be over approximated as non-affine accesses".
Do we just say that the full array is accessed, or is there a more precise description of the memory access that can be computed?

As for other non-affine accesses we use the constant range provided by ScalarEvolution to limit the effects but model it as an access to the whole array if the constant range is not helpfull.
