This canonicalization was suggested in D33172 as a way to make InstCombine behavior more uniform.
We have this transform for icmp+br, so unless there's some reason that icmp+select should be
treated differently, we should do the same thing here.
The benefit comes from increasing the chances of creating identical instructions. This is shown in
the tests in logical-select.ll (PR32791). InstCombine doesn't fold those directly, but EarlyCSE
can simplify the identical cmps, and then InstCombine can fold the selects together.
The possible regression for the tests in select.ll raises questions about poison/undef:

...but that transform is just as likely to be triggered by this canonicalization as it is to be
missed, so we're just pointing out a commutation deficiency in the pattern matching:

Summary:
This is a fix for assertion failure in
`getInverseMinMaxSelectPattern` when ABS is passed in as a select pattern.
We should not be invoking the simplification rule for
ABS(MIN(~ x,y))) or ABS(MAX(~x,y)) combinations.
Added a test case which would cause an assertion failure without the patch.

As the test change shows, we can increase the critical path by adding
a 'not' instruction, so make sure that we're actually removing an
instruction if we do this transform.
This transform could also cause us to miss folds of min/max pairs.

Try harder to detect obfuscated min/max patterns: the initial pattern was added with D9352 / rL236202.
There was a bug fix for PR27137 at rL264996, but I think we can do better by folding the corresponding
smax pattern and commuted variants.
The codegen tests demonstrate the effect of ValueTracking on the backend via SelectionDAGBuilder. We
can't expose these differences minimally in IR because we don't have smin/smax intrinsics for IR.

Summary:
Optimizing these well are especially interesting for IRCE since it
"clamps" values by generating this sort of pattern through SCEV
expressions.
Depends on D9352.

This case is interesting because ScalarEvolutionExpander lowers min(a,
b) as ~max(~a,~b). I think the profitability heuristics can be made
more clever/aggressive, but this is a start.
