It's kind-of tail-duplication that is required here. The jump threading code
can likely be abused here but the important thing is of course the costing
where unlike with jump-threading, there's no branch that will go away.
In theory (and with --param logical-op-non-short-circuit=0) GVN PRE could
also see that the multiplication result is fully available on both
arms (but the VN part doesn't know about conditional equivalences [yet]).
That said, it's a value-numbering issue as soon as (like here) a value
is always known to have some specific value.
But yes, it might be easier to have another transform simplify the problem
for us.
Oh, and logical-op-non-short-circuit manifests itself too early.
