Add llvm.sideeffect to potential infinite loops and recursions
LLVM assumes that a thread will eventually cause side effect. This is
not true in Rust if a loop or recursion does nothing in its body,
causing undefined behavior even in common cases like `loop {}`.
Inserting llvm.sideeffect fixes the undefined behavior.

As a micro-optimization, only insert llvm.sideeffect when jumping back
in blocks or calling a function.

A patch for LLVM is expected to allow empty non-terminate code by
default and fix this issue from LLVM side.
