Teach the BranchProbabilityInfo analysis pass to read any metadata
encoding of probabilities. In the absense of metadata, it continues to
fall back on static heuristics.
This allows __builtin_expect, after lowering through llvm.expect
a branch instruction's metadata, to actually enter the branch
probability model. This is one component of resolving PR2577.
