[X86] The TEST instruction is eliminated when BSF/TZCNT is used

Summary:
These changes cover the PR#31399.
Now the ffs(x) function is lowered to (x != 0) ? llvm.cttz(x) + 1 : 0
and it corresponds to the following llvm code:
  %cnt = tail call i32 @llvm.cttz.i32(i32 %v, i1 true)
  %tobool = icmp eq i32 %v, 0
  %.op = add nuw nsw i32 %cnt, 1
  %add = select i1 %tobool, i32 0, i32 %.op
and x86 asm code:
  bsfl     %edi, %ecx
  addl     $1, %ecx
  testl    %edi, %edi
  movl     $0, %eax
  cmovnel  %ecx, %eax
In this case the 'test' instruction can't be eliminated because
the 'add' instruction modifies the EFLAGS, namely, ZF flag
that is set by the 'bsf' instruction when 'x' is zero.

We now produce the following code:
  bsfl     %edi, %ecx
  movl     $-1, %eax
  cmovnel  %ecx, %eax
  addl     $1, %eax
