Chandler Carruth 464bda3a16 Teach the reassociate pass to fold chains of multiplies with repeated
elements to minimize the number of multiplies required to compute the
final result. This uses a heuristic to attempt to form near-optimal
binary exponentiation-style multiply chains. While there are some cases
it misses, it seems to at least a decent job on a very diverse range of
inputs.

Initial benchmarks show no interesting regressions, and an 8%
improvement on SPASS. Let me know if any other interesting results (in
either direction) crop up!

Credit to Richard Smith for the core algorithm, and helping code the
patch itself.
