Improve profile-guided heuristics to use estimated trip count.

Summary:
Existing heuristic uses the ratio between the function entry
frequency and the loop invocation frequency to find cold loops. However,
even if the loop executes frequently, if it has a small trip count per
each invocation, vectorization is not beneficial. On the other hand,
even if the loop invocation frequency is much smaller than the function
invocation frequency, if the trip count is high it is still beneficial
to vectorize the loop.

This patch uses estimated trip count computed from the profile metadata
as a primary metric to determine coldness of the loop. If the estimated
trip count cannot be computed, it falls back to the original heuristics.
