This removes the extractvalue constant expression, as part of
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-remove-most-constant-expressions/63179.
extractvalue is already not supported in bitcode, so we do not need
to worry about bitcode auto-upgrade.
Uses of ConstantExpr::getExtractValue() should be replaced with
IRBuilder::CreateExtractValue() (if the fact that the result is
constant is not important) or ConstantFoldExtractValueInstruction()
(if it is). Though for this particular case, it is also possible
and usually preferable to use getAggregateElement() instead.
The C API function LLVMConstExtractValue() is removed, as the
underlying constant expression no longer exists. Instead,
LLVMBuildExtractValue() should be used (which will constant fold
or create an instruction). Depending on the use-case,
LLVMGetAggregateElement() may also be used instead.

This change fixes a bug in SelectionDAGBuilder::visitInsertValue and SelectionDAGBuilder::visitExtractValue where constant expressions (InsertValueConstantExpr and ExtractValueConstantExpr) would be treated as non-constant instructions (InsertValueInst and ExtractValueInst). This bug resulted in an incorrect memory access, which manifested as an assertion failure in SDValue::SDValue.
Fixes PR#33094.
