Remove a very old instcombine where we would turn sequences of selects into
logical operations on the i1's driving them. This is a bad idea for every target I can think of (confirmed with micro tests on all of: x86-64, ARM, AArch64, Mips, and PowerPC) because it forces the i1 to be materialized into a general purpose register, whereas consuming it directly into a select generally allows it to exist only transiently in a predicate or flags register. Chandler ran a set of performance tests with this change, and reported no measurable change on x86-64. llvm-svn: 201275
