[NVPTX] Upgrade NVVM intrinsics in InstCombineCalls.

Summary

There are many NVVM intrinsics that we can't entirely get rid of, but
that nonetheless often correspond to target-generic LLVM intrinsics.

For example, if flush denormals to zero (ftz) is enabled, we can convert
@llvm.nvvm.ceil.ftz.f to @llvm.ceil.f32. On the other hand, if ftz is
disabled, we can't do this, because @llvm.ceil.f32 will be lowered to a
non-ftz PTX instruction. In this case, we can, however, simplify the
non-ftz nvvm ceil intrinsic, @llvm.nvvm.ceil.f, to @llvm.ceil.f32.

These transformations are particularly useful because they let us
constant fold instructions that appear in libdevice, the bitcode library
that ships with CUDA and essentially functions as its libm.

default?

Is there a reason to prefer that over this syntax? This is fewer chars, which is why I chose to do it this way.

The constructor of SimplifyAction could be trivial because the compiler can see what's going on. This would not be so with a user defined constructor.

Explicitly default the default constructor.

Rebase atop latest patches, which make it unnecessary to special-case sqrt.
