Reviewers: Jakob,

Message:
ia32 version only, just to get early feedback.

Description:
Improve code for integral modulus calculation.

Depending on what we know about the right operand, we basically do 3
different things (and the code is actually structured this way):

* If we statically know that the right operand is a power of 2, we do
  some bit fiddling instead of doing a "real" modulus calculation.
  This should actually be done on the Hydrogen level, not on the
  Lithium level, but this will be a separate CL.

* If type feedback tells us that the right operand is a power of 2, we
  do the same as above, but guarded by conditional deoptimization to
  make sure that the assumption is still valid. In the long run, we
  should make this guard visible on the Hydrogen level to make it
  visible for GVN and other optimizations.

* In the general case we only do the minimum steps necessary and don't
  try to be too clever, because cleverness actually slows us down on
  real-world code.
