Chris Lattner 9ce300013d Ignore instructions that are in trivially dead functions. This allows us
to constify 14 globals instead of 4 in a trivial C++ testcase.

// This pass loops over the non-constant internal global variables in the
// program. If it can prove that they are never written to, it marks them
// constant.
//
// NOTE: this should eventually use the alias analysis interfaces to do the
// transformation, but for now we just stick with a simple solution. DSA in
// particular could give a much more accurate answer to the mod/ref query, but
// it's not quite ready for this.
