logic to look through pointer casts, making them trivially stronger in the face of loads and stores with intervening pointer casts. I've included a few test cases that demonstrate the kind of folding instcombine can do without pointer casts and then variations which obfuscate the logic through bitcasts. Without this patch, the variations all fail to optimize fully. This is more important now than it has been in the past as I've started moving the load canonicialization to more closely follow the value type requirements rather than the pointer type requirements and thus this needs to be prepared for more pointer casts. When I made the same change to stores several test cases regressed without logic along these lines so I wanted to systematically improve matters first. llvm-svn: 220178
