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).
