[mir-opt] Improve SimplifyLocals pass so it can remove unused consts
The `ConstProp` can cause many locals to be initialized to a constant
value and then never read from. `ConstProp` can also evaluate ZSTs into
constant values. Previously, many of these would be removed by other
parts of the MIR optimization pipeline. However, evaluating ZSTs
(especially `()`) into constant values defeated those parts of the
optimizer and so in a2e3ed5, I added a
hack to `ConstProp` that skips evaluating ZSTs to avoid that regression.
This commit changes `SimplifyLocals` so that it doesn't consider writes
of const values to a local to be a use of that local. In doing so,
`SimplifyLocals` is able to remove otherwise unused locals left behind
by other optimization passes (`ConstProp` in particular).
