This is the last JumpThreading patch for getting the performance numbers shown at
https://reviews.llvm.org/D84940#2184653 .

This patch makes ProcessBlock call ProcessBranchOnPHI when the branch condition
is freeze(phi) as well (originally it calls the function when the condition is
phi only).

Since what ProcessBranchOnPHI does is to duplicate the basic block into
predecessors if profitable, it is still valid when the condition is freeze(phi)
too.

      p = phi [a, pred1] [b, pred2]
      p.fr = freeze p
      br p.fr, ...
  =>
    pred1:
      p.fr = freeze a
      br p.fr, ...
    pred2:
      p.fr2 = freeze b
      br p.fr2, ...

Thank you so much!
