  [NFCI][IR] Add DataLayout pointer to zero and null value related APIs

When the semantics of `ConstantPointerNull` change to represent a semantic null
pointer in the future, a null value won't necessarily be a zero value anymore.
Because of that, the entire LLVM constant infrastructure will need to change. As
a first step, this PR adds an optional data layout pointer to `isNullValue`,
`isZeroValue`, `getNullValue`, and `getZeroValue`. It isn't used yet, since a
null value is still a zero value right now.
