Sanjoy Das 6cd19fcfb8 [ImplicitNullChecks] Hoist trivial depdendencies if possible
When trying to convert a loading instruction into a FAULTING_LOAD, we
sometimes face code like this:

  if %R10 is not null:
    %R9<def> = MOV32ri Immediate
    %R9<def, tied> = AND32rm %R9, 0x20(%R10)
  else:
    goto TRAP

In these cases we would like to use the AND32rm instruction as the
faulting operation by hoisting the "depedency" def-ing %R9 also above
the control flow, transforming the program into:

  %R9<def> = MOV32ri Immediate
  %R9<def, tied> = FAULTING_LOAD_OP(AND32rm %R9, 0x20(%R10), FailPath: TRAP)

This change teaches ImplicitNullChecks to do the above, when safe.
