This patch resolves both PR tree-optimization/64992 and PR
tree-optimization/98956 which are missed optimization enhancement
request, for which Andrew Pinski already has a proposed solution
(related to a fix for PR tree-optimization/98954).  Yesterday,
I proposed an alternate improved patch for PR98954, which although
superior in most respects, alas didn't address this case [which
doesn't include a BIT_AND_EXPR], hence this follow-up fix.

For many functions, F(B), of a (zero-one) Boolean value B, the
expression F(B) != 0 can often be simplified to just B.  Hence
"(B * 5) != 0" is B, "-B != 0" is B, "bswap(B) != 0" is B,
"(B >>r 3) != 0" is B.  These are all currently optimized by GCC,
with the strange exception of left shifts by a constant (possibly
due to the undefined/implementation defined behaviour when the
shift constant is larger than the first operand's precision).
This patch adds support for this particular case, when the shift
constant is valid.

This patch has been tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu with make bootstrap
and make -k check, both with and without --target_board=unix{-m32},
with no new failures.  Ok for mainline?

while we deliberately do not fold int << 34 since the result is undefined
there is IMHO no reason to not fold the above for any (even non-constant)
shift value.  We have guards with TYPE_OVERFLOW_SANITIZED in
some cases but I think that's not appropriate here, there's one
flag_sanitize check, maybe there's a special bit for SHIFT overflow we
can use.  Why is (X << 0) != 0 excempt in the condition?

In this case, I think it makes more sense to err on the side of caution, and
avoid changing the observable behaviour of programs, even in cases were
the behaviour is officially undefined.  For many targets, (1<<x) != 0 is indeed
always true for any value of x, but a counter example are x86's SSE shifts,
where shifts beyond the size of the vector result in zero.  With STV, this
means that (1<<258) != 0 has a different value if performed as scalar vs.
performed as vector.  Worse, one may end up with examples, where based
upon optimization level, we see different results as shift operands become 
propagated  constants in some paths, but was variable shifts others.

Hence my personal preference is "first, do no harm" and limit this 
transformation to the safe 0 <= X < MODE_PRECISION (mode).
Then given we'd like to avoid negative shifts, and therefore need to
test against zero, my second preference is "0 < X" over "0 <= X".
If the RTL contains a shift by zero, something strange is already going on
(these should be caught optimized elsewhere), and it's better to leave
these issues visible in the RTL, than paper over any "latent" mistakes. 

I fully I agree that this optimization could be more aggressive, but that
isn't required to resolve this PR, and resolving PR64992 only to open
the door for follow-up "unexpected behavior" PRs isn't great progress.

Thoughts?  Ok for mainline?

OK - can you add a comment reflecting the above?  An improvement
might be to allow non-constant operands but test sth like

 expr_in_range (@1, 1, TYPE_PRECISION (...))

we already have expr_not_equal_to, expr_in_range could be done
with

        value_range vr;
        if (get_global_range_query ()->range_of_expr (vr, @0)
            && vr.kind () == VR_RANGE)
          {
            wide_int wmin0 = vr.lower_bound ();
            wide_int wmax0 = vr.upper_bound ();
...

there's a bunch of range_of_expr uses, I didn't check closely but
some might fit a new expr_in_range utility.

That can be done as followup (if you like).  Btw, I wonder if
bit-CCP would have not simplified the shift-by-constant compared
to zero as well?  If so, does that behave the same with respect
to 0 or out of bound shifts?
