<summary>Changes</summary>

There is a problem with the current profitability check for vectorization in 
LoopInterchange. There are both false positives and false negatives. The former 
means that the heuristic may say that "an exchange is necessary to vectorize 
the innermost loop" even though it's already possible. The latter means that 
the heuristic may miss a case where an exchange is necessary to vectorize the 
innermost loop. Note that this is not a dependency analysis problem.  These 
problems can occur even if the analysis is accurate (no overestimation).

This patch adds tests to clarify the cases that should be fixed. The root cause 
of these cases is that the heuristic doesn't handle the direction of a 
dependency correctly.
