Several functionalities have been added to FSO over time and the logic has become
muddled.
We were always looking at a static image of the SIL and try to reason about what kind of
function signature related optimizations we can do.
This can easily lead to muddled logic. e.g. we need to consider 2 different function
signature optimizations together instead of independently.
Split 1 single function to do all sorts of different analyses in FSO into several
small transformations, each of which does a specific job. After every analysis, we produce
a new function and eventually we collapse all intermediate thunks to in a single thunk.
With this change, it will be easier to implement function signature optimization as now
we can do them independently now.
Small modifications to the test cases.
Based on the review of my previous commit, I did some re-factorings.
The code is now simpler and handles more cases. More tests were added.
The overall idea of this rewrite is that the pass basically tries to check if it can
see all possible writes (i.e. initializations) into a given let property. Only if it can be proven
that the pass sees all possible writes and all those initializations are producing
the same constant, statically known value, the pass propagates this constant value
into uses of a property.

The optimization pass was inspecting only init methods to determine if a given let property is defined
in the same way by all initializers. But this is not enough in certain cases, e.g. when some of the
initializers were inlined into the application code and the body of the inlined SIL function representing
such an initializer was removed afterwards by the dead function elimination pass. In such situations,
the Let Properties Optimization pass was assuming that there is only one initializer and considered the
constant let property value defined there as the only possible value of this let property. Therefore it
propagated it into let-property uses, which resulted in an incorrect code.
The right thing to do is to analyze all assignments to a given let property whether they are inside initializer
SIL functions or not. This makes sure that all possible values of a let property are analyzed and compared.
The propagation of a constant let property value can only happen if all found possible values are all the same.

The optimization should not proceed if there is more than one assignment to a let property inside an initializer.
In this case, the value of the let property is considered unknown.
