Summary:
This patch adds processing of binary operations when the def of operands are in
the same block (i.e. local processing).
Earlier we bailed out in such cases (the bail out was introduced in rL252032)
because LVI at that time was more precise about context at the end of basic
blocks, which implied local def and use analysis didn't benefit CVP.
Since then we've added support for LVI in presence of assumes and guards. The
test cases added show how local def processing in CVP helps adding more
information to the ashr, sdiv, srem and add operators.
Note: processCmp which suffers from the same problem will
be handled in a later patch.

The motivating example is this
for (j = n; j > 1; j = i) {
i = j / 2;
}
The signed division is safely to be changed to an unsigned division (j is known
to be larger than 1 from the loop guard) and later turned into a single shift
without considering the sign bit.
