Constant folding is rewritten and unused constants are removed from co_consts.

But I don't have time to prove it, and it is too off topic because it is not related to precise line number. Please forget what I said about blocking future optimization. My idea was just merging code blocks, but it is not worth enough. And it is not related to execution speed. On the other hand, if we can not remove lnotab, it is still considerable to avoid having two lnotabs in -O mode. Memory overhead of lnotab is not negligible.
