Rename AddReadAttrs to FunctionAttrs, and teach it how
to work out (in a very simplistic way) which function arguments (pointer arguments only) are only dereferenced and so do not escape. Mark such arguments 'nocapture'. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@61525 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8
