Such a dead code elimination can remove redundant stores to arrays. It can also
eliminate calculations where the results are stored to memory but where they are
overwritten before ever being read. It may also fix bugs like:

This commit just adds a sceleton without any functionality.
If anybody is interested to learn about polyhedral optimizations this would be
a good task. Well definined, self contained and pretty simple. Ping me if you
want to start and you need some pointers to get going.

It is only needed for PoCC. We may update our openscop support which is
expected to be wider used. If this is the case we could automatically build
openscop.

As we now have a scheduler that works, I do not believe a lot of people need
PoCC right ahead. People who want to do an in depth investigation of the
different schedulers can install it as well manually.

This has shown better results for 2mm, 3mm and a couple of other benchmarks.
After this we show consistenly better results as PoCC with maxfuse. We need
to see if PoCC can also give better results with another fusion strategy.

maximise_band_depth does not seem to have any effect for now, but it may help to
increase the amount of tileable loops. We expose the flag to be able to analyze
its effects when looking into individual benchmarks.

This speeds up the scheduler by orders of magnitude and in addition yields often
to a better schedule.
With this we can compile all polybench kernels with less than 5x compile time
overhead. In general the overhead is even less than 2-3x. This is still with
running a lot of redundant passes and no compile time tuning at all. There are
several obvious areas where we can improve here further.
There are also two test cases where we cannot find a schedule any more (cholesky
and another). I will look into them later on.
With this we have a very solid base line from which we can start to optimize
further.

In case we can not analyze an access function, we do not discard the SCoP, but
assume conservatively that all memory accesses that can be derived from our base
pointer may be accessed.

To extract a preoptimized LLVM-IR file from a C-file run:
clang -Xclang -load -Xclang LLVMPolly.so -O0 -mllvm -polly file.c -S -emit-llvm
On the generated file you can directly run passes such as:
'opt -view-scops file.s'
