This removes the insertvalue constant expression, as part of
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-remove-most-constant-expressions/63179.
This is very similar to the extractvalue removal from D125795.
insertvalue is also not supported in bitcode, so no auto-ugprade
is necessary.
ConstantExpr::getInsertValue() can be replaced with
IRBuilder::CreateInsertValue() or ConstantFoldInsertValueInstruction(),
depending on whether a constant result is required (with the latter
being fallible).
The ConstantExpr::hasIndices() and ConstantExpr::getIndices()
methods also go away here, because there are no longer any constant
expressions with indices.

extractvalue is already not supported in bitcode, so we do not need
to worry about bitcode auto-upgrade.
Uses of ConstantExpr::getExtractValue() should be replaced with
IRBuilder::CreateExtractValue() (if the fact that the result is
constant is not important) or ConstantFoldExtractValueInstruction()
(if it is). Though for this particular case, it is also possible
and usually preferable to use getAggregateElement() instead.
The C API function LLVMConstExtractValue() is removed, as the
underlying constant expression no longer exists. Instead,
LLVMBuildExtractValue() should be used (which will constant fold
or create an instruction). Depending on the use-case,
LLVMGetAggregateElement() may also be used instead.
