Related to https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37793, https://reviews.llvm.org/D46760#1127287
We'd like to do this canonicalization https://rise4fun.com/Alive/Gmc
But it is currently restricted by rL155136 / rL155362, which says:
```
// This is a constant shift of a constant shift. Be careful about hiding
// shl instructions behind bit masks. They are used to represent multiplies
// by a constant, and it is important that simple arithmetic expressions
// are still recognizable by scalar evolution.
//
// The transforms applied to shl are very similar to the transforms applied
// to mul by constant. We can be more aggressive about optimizing right
// shifts.
//
// Combinations of right and left shifts will still be optimized in
// DAGCombine where scalar evolution no longer applies.
```
I think these tests show that for *constants*, SCEV has no issues with that canonicalization.
