The pass is updated to handle loads through complex addressing mode,
specifically, when we have a scaled register and a scale.
It requires two API updates in TII which have been implemented for X86.
See added IR and MIR testcases.

This is the first in a series of patches to make implicit null checks
more general. This patch identifies instructions that preserves zero
value of a register and considers that as a valid instruction to hoist
along with the faulting load. See added testcases.

Summary:
It seems that negative offset was accidentally allowed in D17967.
AFAICT small negative offset should be valid (always raise segfault) on all archs that I'm aware of (especially x86, which is the only one with this optimization enabled) and such case can be useful when loading hiden metadata from an object.
However, like the positive side, it should only be done within a certain limit.
For now, use the same limit on the positive side for the negative side.
A separate option can be added if needs appear.

Summary:
Before this change ImplicitNullChecks would only pick loads of the form:
```
test Reg, Reg
jz elsewhere
fallthrough:
movl 32(Reg), Reg2
```
but not (say)
```
test Reg, Reg
jz elsewhere
fallthrough:
inc Reg3
movl 32(Reg), Reg2
```
This change teaches ImplicitNullChecks to look through "unrelated"
instructions like `inc Reg3` when searching for a load instruction
to convert to a trapping load.

Summary:
This change introduces a !make.implicit metadata that allows the
frontend to pre-select the set of explicit null checks that will be
considered for transformation into implicit null checks.
The reason for not using profiling data instead of !make.implicit is
explained in the change to `FaultMaps.rst`.
