[RFC][IR] Remove Constant::isZeroValue (#181521)
`Constant::isZeroValue` currently behaves same as
`Constant::isNullValue` for all types except floating-point, where it
additionally returns true for negative zero (`-0.0`). However, in
practice, almost all callers operate on integer/pointer types where the
two are equivalent, and the few FP-relevant callers have no meaningful
dependence on the `-0.0` behavior.

This PR removes `isZeroValue` to eliminate the confusing API. All
callers are changed to `isNullValue` with no test failures.

`isZeroValue` will be reintroduced in a future change with clearer
semantics: when null pointers may have non-zero bit patterns,
`isZeroValue` will check for bitwise-all-zeros, while `isNullValue` will
check for the semantic null (which
may be non-zero).

Polly - Polyhedral optimizations for LLVM
-----------------------------------------
http://polly.llvm.org/

Polly uses a mathematical representation, the polyhedral model, to represent and
transform loops and other control flow structures. Using an abstract
representation it is possible to reason about transformations in a more general
way and to use highly optimized linear programming libraries to figure out the
optimal loop structure. These transformations can be used to do constant
propagation through arrays, remove dead loop iterations, optimize loops for
cache locality, optimize arrays, apply advanced automatic parallelization, drive
vectorization, or they can be used to do software pipelining.
