This is a bulk commit that implements the following primary improvements:
* We can now fold cast instructions into select instructions that
have at least one constant operand.
* We now optimize expressions more aggressively based on bits that are
known to be zero. These optimizations occur a lot in code that uses
bitfields even in simple ways.
* We now turn more cast-cast sequences into AND instructions. Before we
would only do this if it if all types were unsigned. Now only the
middle type needs to be unsigned (guaranteeing a zero extend).
* We transform sign extensions into zero extensions in several cases.
This corresponds to these test/Regression/Transforms/InstCombine testcases:
