i965/compiler: Use the new nir_opt_copy_prop_vars pass
We run this after nir_lower_vars_to_ssa so that as many load/store_var intrinsics as possible before copy_prop_vars executes. This is because the pass isn't particularly efficient (it does a lot of linear walks of a linked list) so we'd like as much of the work as possible to be done before copy_prop_vars runs. Shader DB results on Sky Lake: total instructions in shared programs: 12020290 -> 12013627 (-0.06%) instructions in affected programs: 26033 -> 19370 (-25.59%) helped: 16 HURT: 13 total cycles in shared programs: 137772848 -> 137549012 (-0.16%) cycles in affected programs: 6955660 -> 6731824 (-3.22%) helped: 217 HURT: 237 total loops in shared programs: 3208 -> 3208 (0.00%) loops in affected programs: 0 -> 0 helped: 0 HURT: 0 total spills in shared programs: 4112 -> 4057 (-1.34%) spills in affected programs: 483 -> 428 (-11.39%) helped: 2 HURT: 0 total fills in shared programs: 5519 -> 5102 (-7.56%) fills in affected programs: 993 -> 576 (-41.99%) helped: 2 HURT: 0 LOST: 0 GAINED: 0 Broadwell had similar results. On older hardware, the impact isn't as large because they don't advertise GL 4.5. Of the hurt programs, all but one are hurt by a single instruction and the one is hurt by 3 instructions. All of the helped programs, on the other hand, are helped by at least 3 instructions and one kerbal space program shader is helped by 44.59%. The real star of the show, however, is the Gl43CSDof synmark2 benchmark which has two shaders which are cut by 28% and 40% and the over-all runtime performance of the benchmark on my Sky Lake laptop is improved by around 25-30% (it's a bit hard to be exact due to thermal throttling).
