Add some switches helpful for debugging:

-print-before=<Pass Name>

Dump IR before running pass <Pass Name>.

-print-before-all

Dump IR before running each pass.

-print-after-all

Dump IR after running each pass.

These are helpful when tracking down a miscompilation.  It is easy to
get IR dumps and do diffs on them, etc.

To make this work well, add a new getPrinterPass API to Pass so that
each kind of pass (ModulePass, FunctionPass, etc.) can create a Pass
suitable for dumping out the kind of object the Pass works on.
