> This patch aims to optimize a case where a And-Node followed by a Cmp-Node would not be converted into a single "test" instruction. The Architecture Description file currently only handles the cases where the right operand of the And-Node is a constant, but not if both are a register.
> Before this patch, a "and" followed by a "test" would be emitted, so the removed "and" means 2 bytes less have to be emitted.
> I've attached a JMH Benchmark to demonstrate the performance improvements. Here are the numbers of my Windows 11 machine:

> As you can see, the cases with a small static mask have not improved as they have already been covered by another match rule. The test with the large static mask (benchmarkStaticLargeAndCmpEqualsLong) has a sorted instruction sequence as the value is moved to a register and it is not being used directly in the instruction, but there is no measurable performance uplift here.
