When building for C23 the compiler warns about returning a boolean when
a different type is expected instead.
Change the code to return NULL instead of false, fixing the following
error:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
../src/compiler/nir/nir_lower_io_indirect_loads.c: In function ‘get_load_once_variable’:
../src/compiler/nir/nir_lower_io_indirect_loads.c:87:17: error: incompatible types when returning type ‘_Bool’ but ‘nir_variable **’ {aka ‘struct nir_variable **’} was expected
87 | return false;

This is a partial replacement for nir_lower_io_vars_to_temporaries.
It supports all input and output loads. It doesn't handle stores.
The motivation is to improve compile times.
The main differences compared to nir_lower_io_vars_to_temporaries are:
- it only lowers indirect loads to temps and doesn't touch direct loads
which improves compile times and removes the need for nir_lower_vars_to_ssa
afterward because indirect temp access can't be lowered to SSA
- it doesn't move all input loads to the top; it only moves those input
loads to the top whose indirect loads are lowered (which improves
register usage because direct loads are not moved)
- it doesn't have to deal with complexities of variables
