(~a & b) ^ (a | b) --> a
This is the swapped and/or (Demorgan?) sibling fold for
the fold added with D114462 ( 892648b18a8c ).
This case is easier to specify because we are returning
a root value, not a 'not':

(a & b) ^ (~a | b) --> ~a
I was looking for a shortcut to reduce some of the complex logic
folds that are currently up for review (D113216
and others in that stack), and I found this missing from
instcombine/instsimplify.
There is a trade-off in putting it into instsimplify: because
we can't create new values here, we need a strict 'not' op (no
undef elements). Otherwise, the fold is not valid:

If this was in instcombine instead, we could create the proper
'not'. But having the fold here benefits other passes like GVN
that use instsimplify as an analysis.
There is a related fold where 'and' and 'or' are swapped, and
that is planned as a follow-up commit.
