Reapply "[VPlan] Set branch weight metadata on middle term in VPlan (NFC) (#143035)"

This reverts commit 0604dc199c019b23746f4a54885ba0c75569cdae.

The recommitted version addresses post-commit comments and adjusts the
place the branch weights are added. It now runs before VPlans are optimized
for VF and UF, which may remove the vector loop region, causing a crash
trying to get the middle block after that. Test case added in
72f99b75afc12bb.

Original message:
Manage branch weights for the BranchOnCond in the middle block in VPlan.
This requires updating VPInstruction to inherit from VPIRMetadata, which
in general makes sense as there are a number of opcodes that could take
metadata.

There are other branches (part of the skeleton) that also need branch
weights adding.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.

For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.
