Extended Description

LLVM needs a document describing the analyses and optimizations that LLVM
supports, what their command-line parameters and options are, and what are their
capabilities and limitations.

This will be very useful to LLVM end-users as well as potential developers who
can quickly look at what LLVM provides and what it's missing rather than have to
ask on the list or download and read source code or compile and link opt just to
run "-help" which doesn't even give that much info other than a name for each pass.

Also, when this is done, a link to the document can/should be added here:

I added this initial skeleton based on the output of "opt --help":

Obviously, much more is needed. I plan to fill this in from the initial file
comments in each pass and from my own understanding of the passes. Pass authors
should fill in the section for the pass they've written.
