Patch I am testing

This patch handles const->pure transition for all functions detected const that
are not necessarily binding to current def. I think this is best we can do
without tracking down constness from the FE (i.e. before the folding).
The patch tries to be careful to optimize some cases (such as take into account
that inlined functions will bind locally).

I will try to collect some data on code quality effect.
