Original commit message:
Defer some shl transforms to DAGCombine.
The shl instruction is used to represent multiplication by a constant
power of two as well as bitwise left shifts. Some InstCombine
transformations would turn an shl instruction into a bit mask operation,
making it difficult for later analysis passes to recognize the
constsnt multiplication.
Disable those shl transformations, deferring them to DAGCombine time.
An 'shl X, C' instruction is now treated mostly the same was as 'mul X, C'.
These transformations are deferred:
(X >>? C) << C --> X & (-1 << C) (When X >> C has multiple uses)
(X >>? C1) << C2 --> X << (C2-C1) & (-1 << C2) (When C2 > C1)
(X >>? C1) << C2 --> X >>? (C1-C2) & (-1 << C2) (When C1 > C2)
The corresponding exact transformations are preserved, just like
div-exact + mul:
(X >>?,exact C) << C --> X
(X >>?,exact C1) << C2 --> X << (C2-C1)
(X >>?,exact C1) << C2 --> X >>?,exact (C1-C2)
The disabled transformations could also prevent the instruction selector
from recognizing rotate patterns in hash functions and cryptographic
primitives. I have a test case for that, but it is too fragile.

While the patch was perfect and defect free, it exposed a really nasty
bug in X86 SelectionDAG that caused an llc crash when compiling lencod.
I'll put the patch back in after fixing the SelectionDAG problem.

a nice and tidy:
%x1 = load i32* %0, align 4
%1 = icmp eq i32 %x1, 1179403647
br i1 %1, label %if.then, label %if.end
instead of doing lots of loads and branches. May the FreeBSD bootloader
long fit in its allocated space.

1. Only run the early (in the module pass pipe) instcombine/simplifycfg
if the "unit at a time" passes they are cleaning up after runs.
2. Move the "clean up after the unroller" pass to the very end of the
function-level pass pipeline. Loop unroll uses instsimplify now,
so it doesn't create a ton of trash. Moving instcombine later allows
it to clean up after opportunities are exposed by GVN, DSE, etc.
3. Introduce some phase ordering tests for things that are specifically
intended to be simplified by the full optimizer as a whole.
This resolves PR2338, and is progress towards PR6627, which will be
generating code that looks similar to test2.
