This patch enables canonicalization of SPF_ABS and SPF_ABS
to the abs intrinsic.
This is a recommit, the original try was
05d4c4ebc2,
but it was reverted due to an apparent miscompile,
which since then has just been fixed by the previous commit.

Enable canonicalization of SPF_ABS and SPF_NABS to the abs intrinsic.
To be conservative, the one-use check on the comparison is retained,
this may be relaxed if all goes well.
It's pretty likely that this will uncover places that missing
handling for the abs() intrinsic. Please report any seen performance
regressions.

As discussed in PR41083:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41083
...we can assert/crash in EarlyCSE using the current hashing scheme and
instructions with flags.
ValueTracking's matchSelectPattern() may rely on overflow (nsw, etc) or
other flags when detecting patterns such as min/max/abs composed of
compare+select. But the value numbering / hashing mechanism used by
EarlyCSE intersects those flags to allow more CSE.
Several alternatives to solve this are discussed in the bug report.
This patch avoids the issue by doing simple matching of min/max/abs
patterns that never requires instruction flags. We give up some CSE
power because of that, but that is not expected to result in much
actual performance difference because InstCombine will canonicalize
these patterns when possible. It even has this comment for abs/nabs:
/// Canonicalize all these variants to 1 pattern.
/// This makes CSE more likely.
(And this patch adds PhaseOrdering tests to verify that the expected
transforms are still happening in the standard optimization pipelines.
I left this code to use ValueTracking's "flavor" enum values, so we
don't have to change the callers' code. If we decide to go back to
using the ValueTracking call (by changing the hashing algorithm
instead), it should be obvious how to replace this chunk.

Test that instcombine and early-cse can cooperate
to reduce sequences of select patterns that are not
composed of the same underlying instructions.
There's a bug in EarlyCSE (PR41083), and we can test
how much a possible fix (D74285) may affect optimization.
