RFR: 8347459: C2: missing transformation for chain of shifts/multiplications by constants [v10]

[Marc Chevalier]

> This collapses double shift lefts by constants in a single constant: (x << con1) << con2 => x << (con1 + con2). Care must be taken in the case con1 + con2 is bigger than the number of bits in the integer type. In this case, we must simplify to 0.

> Moreover, the simplification logic of the sign extension trick had to be improved. For instance, we use `(x << 16) >> 16` to convert a 32 bits into a 16 bits integer, with sign extension. When storing this into a 16-bit field, this can be simplified into simple `x`. But in the case where `x` is itself a left-shift expression, say `y << 3`, this PR makes the IR looks like `(y << 19) >> 16` instead of the old `((y << 3) << 16) >> 16`. The former logic didn't handle the case where the left and the right shift have different magnitude. In this PR, I generalize this simplification to cases where the left shift has a larger magnitude than the right shift. This improvement was needed not to miss vectorization opportunities: without the simplification, we have a left shift and a right shift instead of a single left shift, which confuses the type inference.
