InstCombine: Canonicalize (2^n)-1 - x into (2^n)-1 ^ x iff x is known to be smaller than 2^n.
This has the obvious advantage of being commutable and is always a win on x86 because const - x wastes a register there. On less weird architectures this may lead to a regression because other arithmetic doesn't fuse with it anymore. I'll address that problem in a followup. llvm-svn: 147254
