Block 20 is deleted. Block 5 follows the deleted block 20. Block 5 does not
start with a virtual PHI.

I think we need to handle the exposed uses (meaning outside the block) of vdefs
in each deleted block. The only vdef that can have exposed uses is the last vdef
in the block. So we should find the last vdef (gimple with gimple_vdef or
virtual PHI) and handle the related uses.

Bootstrapped and regtested on x86_64. OK for trunk?

	PR tree-optimization/50672
	* tree-ssa-tail-merge.c (release_last_vdef): New function.
	(purge_bbs): Add update_vops parameter.  Call release_last_vdef for each
	deleted basic block.
	(tail_merge_optimize): Add argument to call to purge_bbs.
