in place
A shift and add/sub sequence combination is faster in place of a multiply by constant.
Because the cycle or latency of multiply is not huge, we only consider such following
worthy patterns.
```
(mul x, 2^N + 1) => (add (shl x, N), x)
(mul x, -(2^N + 1)) => -(add (shl x, N), x)
(mul x, 2^N - 1) => (sub (shl x, N), x)
(mul x, -(2^N - 1)) => (sub x, (shl x, N))
```
And the cycles or latency is subtarget-dependent so that we need consider the
subtarget to determine to do or not do such transformation.
Also data type is considered for different cycles or latency to do multiply.
