This is the more natural lowering, and presents more opportunities to
reduce 64-bit ops to 32-bit.
This should also help avoid issues graphics shaders have had with
64-bit values, and simplify argument lowering in globalisel.

Summary:
- The current implementation simplifies the case where the source of
`copyto` is `implicit-def`ed. However, it only works when that
`implicit-def` is single-used since it detects that from
`implicit-def` and cannot determine which destination vreg should be
used if there are multiple uses.
- This patch changes that detection when `copyto` is being emitted. If
that `copyto`'s source is defined from `implicit-def`, it simplifies
it. Hence, it works even that `implicit-def` is multi-used.
- Except it simplifies the internal IR, it won't improve the quality of
code generation. However, it helps to detect 'implicit-def` in a
straight-forward manner in some passes, such as `si-i1-copies`. A test
case is added.
