[llvm][loop-rotate] Allow forcing loop-rotation (#82828)
Many profitable optimizations cannot be performed at -Oz, due to
unrotated loops. While this is worse for size (minimally), many of the
optimizations significantly reduce code size, such as memcpy
optimizations and other patterns found by loop idiom recognition.
Related discussion can be found in issue #50308.
This patch adds an experimental, backend-only flag to allow loop header
duplication, regardless of the optimization level. Downstream consumers
can experiment with this flag, and if it is profitable, we can adjust
the compiler's defaults accordingly, and expose any useful frontend
flags to opt into the new behavior.
