[PATCH] cfgexpand: Update partition size when merging variables

cfgexpand sorts variables by decreasing size, so when merging a later
variable into an earlier one, there's usually no need to update the
merged size.

But for poly_int sizes, the sort function just uses a lexicographical
comparison of the coefficients, so e.g. 2X+2 comes before 0X+32.
Which is bigger depends on the runtime value of X.

This patch therefore takes the upper bound of the two sizes, which
is conservatively correct for variable-length vectors and a no-op
on other targets.

It's probably a bad idea to merge fixed-length and variable-length
variables in practice, but that's really an optimisation decision.
I think we should have this patch as a correctness fix either way.

This is easiest to test using the ACLE, but in principle it could happen
for autovectorised code too, e.g. when using OpenMP vector variables.
It's therefore a regression from GCC 8.

Tested on aarch64-linux-gnu and x86_64-linux-gnu.  OK to install?
