Pool alignment information for common bases

This patch is a follow-on to the fix for PR81136.  The testcase for that
PR shows that we can (correctly) calculate different base alignments
for two data_references but still tell that their misalignments wrt the
vector size are equal.  This is because we calculate the base alignments
for each dr individually, without looking at the other drs, and in
general the alignment we calculate is only guaranteed if the dr's DR_REF
actually occurs.

This is working as designed, but it does expose a missed opportunity.
We know that if a vectorised loop is reached, all statements in that
loop execute at least once, so it should be safe to pool the alignment
information for all the statements we're vectorising.  The only catch is
that DR_REFs for masked loads and stores only occur if the mask value is
nonzero.  For example, in:

    struct s __attribute__((aligned(32))) {
      int misaligner;
      int array[N];
    };

    int *ptr;
    for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i)
      ptr[i] = c[i] ? ((struct s *) (ptr - 1))->array[i] : 0;

we can only guarantee that ptr points to a "struct s" if at least
one c[i] is true.

This patch adds a DR_IS_CONDITIONAL_IN_STMT flag to record whether
the DR_REF is guaranteed to occur every time that the statement
executes to completion.  It then pools the alignment information
for references that aren't conditional in this sense.
