[LVI] Check for @llvm.assume dominating the edge branch

When LazyValueInfo uses @llvm.assume intrinsics to provide edge-value
constraints, we should check for intrinsics that dominate the edge's branch,
not just any potential context instructions. An assumption that dominates the
edge's branch represents a truth on that edge. This is specifically useful, for
example, if multiple predecessors assume a pointer to be nonnull, allowing us
to simplify a later null comparison.

The test case, and an initial patch, were provided by Philip Reames. Thanks!
