75bb30dd - Move {load,store}(llvm.protected.field.ptr) lowering to InstCombine.

Move {load,store}(llvm.protected.field.ptr) lowering to InstCombine. The previous position of llvm.protected.field.ptr lowering for loads and stores was problematic as it not only inhibited optimizations such as DSE (as stores to a llvm.protected.field.ptr were not considered to must-alias stores to the non-protected.field pointer) but also required changes to other optimization passes to avoid transformations that would reduce PFP coverage. Address this by moving the load/store part of the lowering to InstCombine, where it will run earlier than the PFP-breaking and AA-relying transformations. The deactivation symbol, null comparison and EmuPAC parts of the lowering remain in PreISelLowering. Now that the transformation inhibitions are no longer needed, remove them (i.e. partially revert #151649, and revert #182976). This change resulted in a 2.4% reduction in Fleetbench .text size and the following improvements to PFP performance overhead for BM_PROTO_Arena on various microarchitectures: before after Apple M2 Ultra 3.5% 3.3% Google Axion C4A 3.3% 2.9% Google Axion N4A 2.7% 2.2% Reviewers: fmayer, nikic, vitalybuka Reviewed By: fmayer Pull Request: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/186548
