The benchmarking summarized in
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2017-May/113525.html showed
this is beneficial for a wide range of cores.
As is to be expected, quite a few small adaptations are needed to the
regressions tests, as the difference in scheduling results in:
- Quite a few small instruction schedule differences.
- A few changes in register allocation decisions caused by different
instruction schedules.
- A few changes in IfConversion decisions, due to a difference in
instruction schedule and/or the estimated cost of a branch mispredict.

There may be a way to loosen the restriction, but for now just bail out
on any opaque constant.
The tests show that opacity is target-specific. This goes back to cost
calculations in ConstantHoisting based on TTI->getIntImmCost().

The transform in question claims to be doing:
// fold (add (select cc, 0, c), x) -> (select cc, x, (add, x, c))
...starting in PerformADDCombineWithOperands(), but it wasn't actually checking for a setcc node
for the sext/zext patterns.
This is exactly the opposite of a transform I'd like to add to DAGCombiner's foldSelectOfConstants(),
so I was seeing infinite loops with my draft of a patch applied.
The changes in select_const.ll look positive (less instructions). The change in arm-and-tst-peephole.ll
is unrelated. We're changing the input IR in that test to preserve the intent of the test, but that's
not affected by this code change.

The motivation for filling out these select-of-constants cases goes back to D24480,
where we discussed removing an IR fold from add(zext) --> select. And that goes back to:
https://reviews.llvm.org/rL75531https://reviews.llvm.org/rL159230
The idea is that we should always canonicalize patterns like this to a select-of-constants
in IR because that's the smallest IR and the best for value tracking. Note that we currently
do the opposite in some cases (like the cases in *this* patch). Ie, the proposed folds in
this patch already exist in InstCombine today:
https://github.com/llvm-mirror/llvm/blob/master/lib/Transforms/InstCombine/InstCombineSelect.cpp#L1151
As this patch shows, most targets generate better machine code for simple ext/add/not ops
rather than a select of constants. So the follow-up steps to make this less of a patchwork
of special-case folds and missing IR canonicalization:
1. Have DAGCombiner convert any select of constants into ext/add/not ops.
2 Have InstCombine canonicalize in the other direction (create more selects).
