[SimpleLoopUnswitch] Fix introduction of UB when hoisted condition may be undef or poison

Summary:
Loop unswitch hoists branches on loop-invariant conditions. However, if this
condition is poison/undef and the branch wasn't originally reachable, loop
unswitch introduces UB (since the optimized code will branch on poison/undef and
the original one didn't)).
We fix this problem by freezing the condition to ensure we don't introduce UB.

We will now transform the following:
  while (...) {
    if (C) { A }
    else   { B }
  }

Into:
  C' = freeze(C)
  if (C') {
    while (...) { A }
  } else {
    while (...) { B }
  }

This patch fixes the root cause of the following bug reports (which use the old loop unswitch, but can be reproduced with minor changes in the code and -enable-nontrivial-unswitch):
