This an alternate to D87479 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D87479> that uses LoopInfo to more precisely target the problematic transform.

Allowing the transform early in the optimization pipeline (because there may not be any LoopInfo yet) doesn't seem like a bad thing, so I added a test comment about that. That potentially lets reassociation and other passes see a better optimization. But we want to avoid the sinking later because it conflicts with LICM.

As discussed in D143631 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D143631>, there's a larger issue between reassociation/combining/LICM because this doesn't solve a more general problem that we can show in an example with no fdivs:

...but this does manage to avoid the problem in the motivating test for D143631 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D143631>.
