This allows NIR to CSE more operations. LLVM does this also so the
impact is limited, however doing this in NIR allows other opts to
make progress.
I didn't have a large vkpipeline-db to run this against but for
radeonsi enabling this allowed some loops in Civilization Beyond
Earth shaders to unroll.
