Today the safepoint IR verifier catches some unrelocated uses of base
pointers that are actually valid.
With this change, we narrow down the set of false positives.
Specifically, the verifier knows about compares to null and compares
between 2 unrelocated pointers.

Original Patch and summary by Philip Reames.
RewriteStatepointsForGC tries to rewrite a function in a manner where
the optimizer can't end up using a pointer value after it might have
been relocated by a safepoint. This pass checks the invariant that
RSForGC is supposed to establish and that (if we constructed semantics
correctly) later passes must preserve.
This has been a really useful diagnostic tool when initially developing
the rewriting scheme and has found numerous bugs.
