Auto merge of rust-lang#119911 - NCGThompson:is-statically-known, r=o…
…li-obk Replacement of rust-lang#114390: Add new intrinsic `is_var_statically_known` and optimize pow for powers of two This adds a new intrinsic `is_val_statically_known` that lowers to [``@llvm.is.constant.*`](https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#llvm-is-constant-intrinsic).` It also applies the intrinsic in the int_pow methods to recognize and optimize the idiom `2isize.pow(x)`. See rust-lang#114390 for more discussion. While I have extended the scope of the power of two optimization from rust-lang#114390, I haven't added any new uses for the intrinsic. That can be done in later pull requests. Note: When testing or using the library, be sure to use `--stage 1` or higher. Otherwise, the intrinsic will be a noop and the doctests will be skipped. If you are trying out edits, you may be interested in [`--keep-stage 0`](https://rustc-dev-guide.rust-lang.org/building/suggested.html#faster-builds-with---keep-stage). Fixes rust-lang#47234 Resolves rust-lang#114390 `@Centri3`
