RFR: 8324655: Identify integer minimum and maximum patterns created with if statements

[Jasmine Karthikeyan]

Hi all, I've created this patch which aims to convert common integer mininum and maximum patterns created using if statements into Min and Max nodes. These patterns are usually in the form of `a > b ? a : b` and similar, as well as patterns such as `if (a > b) b = a;`. While this transform doesn't generally improve code generation it's own, it simplifies control flow and creates new opportunities for vectorization.

I've created a benchmark for the PR, and I've attached some data from my (Zen 3) machine:

                                                Baseline                     Patch            Improvement

IfMinMax.testReductionInt   avgt   15  500.307 ±  16.687  ns/op    509.383 ±  32.645  ns/op   (no change)*

IfMinMax.testSingleInt      avgt   15    3.588 ±   0.540  ns/op      2.965 ±   1.380  ns/op   (no change)
IfMinMax.testSingleLong     avgt   15    3.673 ±   0.128  ns/op      3.506 ±   0.590  ns/op   (no change)
IfMinMax.testVectorInt      avgt   15  340.425 ±  13.123  ns/op     59.689 ±   7.509  ns/op   + 5.7x
IfMinMax.testVectorLong     avgt   15  326.420 ±  15.554  ns/op    117.190 ±   5.622  ns/op   + 2.8x


* After writing this benchmark I discovered that the compiler doesn't seem to create some simple min/max reductions, even when using Math.min/max() directly. Is this known or should I create a followup RFE for this?

The patch passes tier 1-3 testing on linux x64. Reviews or comments would be appreciated!
