Craig Topper 5b173f2bb3 [InstCombine] Add range metadata to cttz/ctlz/ctpop intrinsic calls based on known bits
Summary:
I noticed that passing known bits across these intrinsics isn't great at capturing the information we really know. Turning known bits of the input into known bits of a count output isn't able to convey a lot of what we really know.

This patch adds range metadata to these intrinsics based on the known bits.

Currently the patch punts if we already have range metadata present.

Philip Reames ddcf6b35a2 Tighten known bits for ctpop based on zero input bits
This is a cleaned up patch from the one written by John Regehr based on the findings of the Souper superoptimizer.

The basic idea here is that input bits that are known zero reduce the maximum count that the intrinsic could return. We know that the number of bits required to represent a particular count is at most log2(N)+1.
