Subject: [PATCH 1/2] [Clang][Flang] Enable loop interchange by default at -O3

PR #124911 enabled the LoopInterchange pass by default in the LLVM
optimization pipeline (the PipelineTuningOptions default used by opt),
but the clang and flang frontends override that default and keep it
off. As a result, driving the compiler through clang or flang never
runs loop interchange unless -floop-interchange is passed explicitly.

Default the -floop-interchange flag on at -O3 for both frontends so
they match the pipeline default. The decision is made in the frontend
(-cc1) for both clang and flang, mirroring -funroll-loops; the flang
driver only forwards an explicit -f[no-]loop-interchange. Lower opt
levels and an explicit -fno-loop-interchange keep it off.
