ir3/nir: Add new NIR AlgebraicPass for lowering imul

Currently, ir3 backend compiler is lowering integer multiplication from:

dst = a * b

to:

dst = (al * bl) + (ah * bl << 16) + (al * bh << 16)

by emitting this code:

mull.u tmp0, a, b           ; mul low, i.e. al * bl
madsh.m16 tmp1, a, b, tmp0  ; mul-add shift high mix, i.e. ah * bl << 16
madsh.m16 dst, b, a, tmp1   ; i.e. al * bh << 16

which at that point has very low chances of being optimized.

This patch adds a new nir_algebraic.AlgebraicPass to performs this
lowering during NIR algebraic optimization passes, giving it a better
chance for optimizing the resulting code.
