If we load from a location with range metadata, we can use information about the ranges of the loaded value for optimization purposes. This helps to remove redundant checks and canonicalize checks for other optimization passes. This particular patch checks whether a value is known to be non-zero from the range metadata.
Currently, these tests are against InstCombine. In theory, all of these should be InstSimplify since we're not inserting any new instructions. Moving the code may follow in a separate change.
