Jingyue Wu 8cb6b2a292 Simplify n-ary adds by reassociation
Summary:
This transformation reassociates a n-ary add so that the add can partially reuse
existing instructions. For example, this pass can simplify

  void foo(int a, int b) {
    bar(a + b);
    bar((a + 2) + b);
  }

to

  void foo(int a, int b) {
    int t = a + b;
    bar(t);
    bar(t + 2);
  }

saving one add instruction.
