[CVP] Process binary operations even when def is local
ClosedPublic

Summary

This patch adds processing of binary operations when the def of operands are in
the same block (i.e. local processing).

Earlier we bailed out in such cases (the bail out was introduced in rL252032)
because LVI at that time was more precise about context at the end of basic
blocks, which implied local def and use analysis didn't benefit CVP.

Since then we've added support for LVI in presence of assumes and guards. The
test cases added show how local def processing in CVP helps adding more
information to the ashr, sdiv, srem and add operators.

Note: processCmp which suffers from the same problem will
be handled in a later patch.

Did you measure the compile time impact somehow?

The patch itself looks good to me.

Compile time results on CTMark benchmarks show compile time is not affected by this change:

Also discussed offline with Philip (wrt change rL252032). LVI over time has been greatly improved to get rid of compile time bottlenecks, so the compile time reason to have the LocalDefs constraint is no longer that relevant.
