Previously, in order to get things working, we just always shadowed
variables. Now, we rewrite derefs whenever it's safe to do so and only
shadow if we have an in or out variable that we write or read to
respectively.
These are used in GLSL IR to removed unused varyings and match
transform feedback variables. There is no need to use these in NIR.

Helps 11 shaders in UnrealEngine4 demos.
I seriously hope they would have given us bitfieldReverse() if we
exposed GL 4.0 (but we do expose ARB_gpu_shader5, so why not use that
anyway?).

cycles in affected programs: 270516 -> 244516 (-9.61%)
I suspect there's a *lot* of room to improve nir_search/opt_algebraic's
handling of this. We'd actually like to match, e.g., step2 by matching
step1 once and then doing a pointer comparison for the second instance
of step1, but unfortunately we generate an enormous tuple for instead.
The .text size increases by 6.5% and the .data by 17.5%.
text data bss dec hex filename
22957 45224 0 68181 10a55 nir_libnir_la-nir_opt_algebraic.o
24461 53160 0 77621 12f35 nir_libnir_la-nir_opt_algebraic.o
I'd be happy to remove this if Unreal4 uses bitfieldReverse() if it is
in a GL 4.0 context once we expose GL 4.0.

The next patch adds an algebraic rule that uses the constant 0xff00ff00.
Without this change, the build fails with
return hex(struct.unpack('I', struct.pack('i', self.value))[0])
struct.error: 'i' format requires -2147483648 <= number <= 2147483647
The hex() function handles integers of any size, and assigning a
negative value to an unsigned does what we want in C. The pack/unpack is
unnecessary (and as we see, buggy).

Walking the SSA definitions in order means that we consider the smallest
algebraic optimizations before larger optimizations. So if a smaller
rule is part of a larger rule, the smaller one will happen first,
preventing the larger one from happening.
instructions in affected programs: 32721 -> 32611 (-0.34%)
helped: 106
In programs whose nir_optimize loop count changes (129 of them):
before: 1164 optimization loops
after: 1071 optimization loops
Of the 129 affected, 16 programs' optimization loop counts increased.
Prevents regressions and annoyances in the next commits.

Parameterize build_asin() on the fit coefficients so the
implementation can be shared while still using different polynomials
for asin and acos. Also switch back to implementing acos in terms of
asin -- The improvement obtained from cancelling out the pi/2 terms
was negligible compared to the approximation error.
vtn_handle_type() creates a signed type regardless of the value of the
signedness flag, which usually doesn't make much of a difference
except when the type is used as base sampled type of an image type,
what will cause the base type of the NIR image variable to be
inconsistent with its format and cause an assertion failure in the
back-end (most likely only reproducible on Gen7), and may change the
semantics of the image intrinsic subtly (e.g. UMIN may become IMIN).
