The current non-null processing only sets a bit for the block which 
contains a non-null setting event.

We should check the dom tree to see if a predecessor dom block sets 
non-null, otherwise we can miss it.  We don't need to do this within the 
propagation engines like the on-entry cache.  They will propagate the 
range as appropriate without looking at the dom tree. So it just as the 
client level query this is needed, make it the default.

Later, the non-null processing will be replaced, but at least get it 
right for now.

Bootstraps on  x86_64-pc-linux-gnu with no testsuite regressions.

Pushed.

Patch

commit 37935ca2f4b5a89322a24620fbec3f3c9f2845fd

    When searching for non-null, check the dominator tree.
    
    The non-null bitmap only indicates which blocks non-null setting occurs.
    Generalized queries need to search the dom tree, whereas propagation
    engines only need to know the current block.  Add a flag for this purpose.
    
            * gimple-range-cache.cc (non_null_ref::non_null_deref_p): Search
            dominator tree is available and requested.
            (ranger_cache::ssa_range_in_bb): Don't search dom tree here.
            (ranger_cache::fill_block_cache): Don't search dom tree here either.
            * gimple-range-cache.h (non_null_deref_p): Add dom_search param.
