James Molloy f59da46fd7 [ValueTracking] Understand more select patterns in ComputeKnownBits
Some patterns of select+compare allow us to know exactly the value of the uppermost bits in the select result. For example:

  %b = icmp ugt i32 %a, 5
  %c = select i1 %b, i32 2, i32 %a

Here we know that %c is bounded by 5, and therefore KnownZero = ~APInt(5).getActiveBits() = ~7.

There are several such patterns, and this patch attempts to understand a reasonable subset of them - namely when the base values are the same (as above), and when they are related by a simple (add nsw), for example (add nsw %a, 4) and %a.
