[InstCombine] reduce right-shift-of-left-shifted constant via demanded bits

If we don't demand high bits (zeros) and it is valid to pre-shift a constant:
(C2 << X) >> C1 --> (C2 >> C1) << X

There are a variety of related patterns, but I haven't found a single solution
that gets all of the motivating examples - so pulling this piece out of
D126617 along with more tests.

We should also handle the case where we shift-right followed by shift-left,
but I'll make that a follow-on patch assuming this one is ok. It seems likely
that we would want to add this to the SDAG version of the code too to keep it
on par with IR.
