See through aggregates in GVN

This PR is extracted from https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/111344

The first 2 commit are cleanups to avoid repeated work. I propose to stop removing useless assignments as part of this pass, and let a later `SimplifyLocals` do it. This makes tests easier to read (among others).

The next 3 commits add a constant folding mechanism to the GVN pass, presented in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/116012. ~This pass is designed to only use global allocations, to avoid any risk of accidental modification of the stored state.~

The following commits implement opportunistic simplifications, in particular:
- projections of aggregates: `MyStruct { x: a }.x` gets replaced by `a`, works with enums too;
- projections of arrays: `[a, b][0]` becomes `a`;
- projections of repeat expressions: `[a; N][x]` becomes `a`;
- transform arrays of equal operands into a repeat rvalue.

Fixes https://github.com/rust-lang/miri/issues/3090
