Enable value forwarding for loads from `calloc()` without an intervening
store.
This change extends GVN to handle the following case:
%1 = tail call noalias i8* @calloc(i64 1, i64 4)
%2 = bitcast i8* %1 to i32*
; This load is trivially constant zero
%3 = load i32* %2, align 4
This is analogous to the handling for `malloc()` in the same places.
`malloc()` returns `undef`; `calloc()` returns a zero value. Note that
it is correct to return zero even for out of bounds GEPs since the
result of such a GEP would be undefined.
