Duncan Sands e3c539581c Fix a README item by having InstructionSimplify do a mild form of value
numbering, in which it considers (for example) "%a = add i32 %x, %y" and
"%b = add i32 %x, %y" to be equal because the operands are equal and the
result of the instructions only depends on the values of the operands.
This has almost no effect (it removes 4 instructions from gcc-as-one-file),
and perhaps slows down compilation: I measured a 0.4% slowdown on the large
gcc-as-one-file testcase, but it wasn't statistically significant.

Duncan Sands a45cfbd405 When determining whether the new instruction was already present in
the original instruction, half the cases were missed (making it not
wrong but suboptimal).  Also correct a typo (A <-> B) in the second
chunk.

Duncan Sands fecc642224 While I don't think any later transforms can fire, it seems cleaner to
not assume this (for example in case more transforms get added below
it).  Suggested by Frits van Bommel.

Duncan Sands ee3ec6eb94 Teach InstructionSimplify about distributive laws. These transforms fire
quite often, but don't make much difference in practice presumably because
instcombine also knows them and more.

Duncan Sands 6c7a52cf80 Add generic simplification of associative operations, generalizing
a couple of existing transforms.  This fires surprisingly often, for
example when compiling gcc "(X+(-1))+1->X" fires quite a lot as well
as various "and" simplifications (usually with a phi node operand).
Most of the time this doesn't make a real difference since the same
thing would have been done elsewhere anyway, eg: by instcombine, but
there are a few places where this results in simplifications that we
were not doing before.
