[PM/AA] Hoist the AliasResult enum out of the AliasAnalysis class.
This will allow classes to implement the AA interface without deriving from the class or referencing an internal enum of some other class as their return types. Also, to a pretty fundamental extent, concepts such as 'NoAlias', 'MayAlias', and 'MustAlias' are first class concepts in LLVM and we aren't saving anything by scoping them heavily. My mild preference would have been to use a scoped enum, but that feature is essentially completely broken AFAICT. I'm extremely disappointed. For example, we cannot through any reasonable[1] means construct an enum class (or analog) which has scoped names but converts to a boolean in order to test for the possibility of aliasing. [1]: Richard Smith came up with a "solution", but it requires class templates, and lots of boilerplate setting up the enumeration multiple times. Something like Boost.PP could potentially bundle this up, but even that would be quite painful and it doesn't seem realistically worth it. The enum class solution would probably work without the need for a bool conversion.
