Summary Calling `BasicBlock::getFirstNonPHIOrDbgOrAlloca` on a `catchswitch` block yields an invalid (end) iterator.

    When calling `BasicBlock::getFirstNonPHIOrDbgOrAlloca()` on a basic block like the following:
```
catch.dispatch:                                   ; preds = %init.attempt.i664
  %0 = catchswitch within none [label %catch] unwind to caller
```

Instead of yielding an iterator to `%0`, we get the end iterator. This is because `getFirstNonPHIOrDbgOrAlloca()` tries to skip over EHPad instructions (like `catchswitch`) but doesn't account for the fact that `catchswitch` is *both* an EHPad instruction and a terminator.

This was found when testing builds with assertions/sentinel-tracking enabled: with certain input IRs, a crash in SLPVectorizer occurs, as the iterator from `getFirstNonPHIOrDbgOrAlloca()` gets dereferenced unconditionally without checking if it is the end iterator. But logically, it shouldn't have to do so; calling this method on a non-empty block with a terminator should always yield a valid iterator (besides, a `catchswitch` instruction is a valid non-PHI or dbg or alloca instruction). This is supported by its use throughout LLVM: a simple search of the codebase shows that most of the time this method is called, the resulting iterator is unconditionally dereferenced.

Example failing test (reduced from Boost 1.75.0 sources):
