avoid null ptr deref in cselib_record_sets

Jeff Law tells me h8300-elf fails gcc.c-torture/compile/pr49029.c
with -O2 -g -mint32 -mh.  This patch fixes it.

The problem is that strict low part handling in cselib_record_sets
assumes src_elt is not NULL.  That src_elt is taken from a strict low
part set, but it won't always have a src_elt to begin with.  In this
case, it's because src is a volatile MEM; we don't record values for
those.

Although we could fix the problem by testing for a NULL src_elt before
creating the zero extends corresponding to strict low part sets of
formerly const0_rtx REGs, there's no point in recording the additional
set that we won't be able to use anyway.

We could still record that the whole register has a zero-extend of
the value stored in the narrower-mode strict low part of the register,
but is that of any use?  I guess not, but if we find otherwise, we can
change that later.

Jeff tested this with a cross compiler to h8300-elf, and several other
native and cross toolchains IIUC.  I'm regstrapping it myself on i686-
and x86_64-linux-gnu.  Ok to install?
