Since we know what side of the branch we ended up on we can just
replace the use with a constant.

All the spill changes in shader-db are from Dolphin uber shaders,
despite some small regressions the change is clearly positive.

shader-db results IVB:

total instructions in shared programs: 9999201 -> 9993483 (-0.06%)

I've just noticed this needs to be nir_instr_insert_after_block() otherwise we can end up inserting the const before so other phi which trips up validation.

I've fixed this locally.
