[InstCombine] Shift amount reassociation in bittest: trunc-of-lshr (PR42399)
Summary:
Finally, the fold i was looking forward to :)
The legality check is muddy, i doubt i've groked the full generalization,
but it handles all the cases i care about, and can come up with:

I.e. we can perform the fold if **any** of the following is true:
* The shift amount is either zero or one less than widest bitwidth
* Either of the values being shifted has at most lowest bit set
* The value that is being shifted by `shl` (which is not truncated) should have no less leading zeros than the total shift amount;
* The value that is being shifted by `lshr` (which **is** truncated) should have no less leading zeros than the widest bit width minus total shift amount minus one
I strongly suspect there is some better generalization, but i'm not aware of it as of right now.
For now i also avoided using actual `computeKnownBits()`, but restricted it to constants.
