Update the branch weight metadata in JumpThreading pass.

In JumpThreading pass, the branch weight metadata is not updated after CFG modification. Consider the jump threading on PredBB, BB, and SuccBB. After jump threading, the weight on BB->SuccBB should be adjusted as some of it is contributed by the edge PredBB->BB, which doesn't exist anymore. This patch tries to update the edge weight in metadata on BB->SuccBB by scaling it by 1 - Freq(PredBB->BB) / Freq(BB->SuccBB).
