nir: Add infastructure for generating algebraic transformation passes
This commit builds on the nir_search.h infastructure by adding a bit of
python code that makes it stupid easy to write an algebraic transformation
pass. The nir_algebraic.py file contains four python classes that
correspond directly to the datastructures in nir_search.c and allow you to
easily generate the C code to represent them. Given a list of
search-and-replace operations, it can then generate a function that applies
those transformations to a shader.
The transformations can be specified manually, or they can be specified
using nested tuples. The nested tuples make a neat little language for
specifying expression trees and search-and-replace operations in a very
readable and easy-to-edit fasion.
The generated code is also fairly efficient. Insteady of blindly calling
nir_replace_instr with every single transformation and on every single
instruction, it uses a switch statement on the instruction opcode to do a
first-order culling and only calls nir_replace_instr if the opcode is known
to match the first opcode in the search expression.
