Summary:
This implements an optimization described in Hacker's Delight 10-17:
when `C` is constant, the result of `X % C == 0` can be computed
more cheaply without actually calculating the remainder.
The motivation is discussed here: https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35479.
One huge caveat: this signed case is only valid for positive divisors.
While we can freely negate negative divisors, we can't negate `INT_MIN`,
so for now if `INT_MIN` is encountered, we bailout.
As a follow-up, it should be possible to handle that more gracefully
via extra `and`+`setcc`+`select`.
This passes llvm's test-suite, and from cursory(!) cross-examination
the folds (the assembly) match those of GCC, and manual checking via alive
did not reveal any issues (other than the `INT_MIN` case)

As discussed in the review, that fold is only valid for positive
divisors, so while we can negate negative divisors,
we have to special-case INT_MIN.

Much like with `urem`, the same optimization (albeit with slightly
different algorithm) applies for the signed case, too.
I'm simply copying the test coverage from `urem` case for now,
i believe it should be (close to?) sufficient.
