glsl: Optimize pow(2, x) --> exp2(x).
On Haswell, POW takes 24 cycles, while EXP2 only takes 14. Plus, using
POW requires putting 2.0 in a register, while EXP2 doesn't.
I believe that EXP2 will be faster than POW on basically all GPUs, so
it makes sense to optimize it.
Looking at the savage2 subset of shader-db:
total instructions in shared programs: 113225 -> 113179 (-0.04%)
instructions in affected programs: 2139 -> 2093 (-2.15%)
instances of 'math pow': 795 -> 749 (-6.14%)
instances of 'math exp': 389 -> 435 (11.8%)
