LoopVectorize: Vectorize all accesses in address space zero with unit stride

We can vectorize them because in the case where we wrap in the address space the
unvectorized code would have had to access a pointer value of zero which is
undefined behavior in address space zero according to the LLVM IR semantics.
(Thank you Duncan, for pointing this out to me).

Fixes PR16592.
