Updated to use dyn_cast, thanks.
This checks if the constant can be lowered to something constant (or almost constant) in the backend. I'm not 100% sure how exactly the result is used, but presumably to decide whether it is worth propagating the constant to multiple places.
I think in general, ConstanPtrAuth will lowered to a set of instructions to materlize the address, followed by a ptrauth instruction, e.g. for the one in the example:
```
adrp x16, _foo at PAGE
add x16, x16, _foo at PAGEOFF
paciza x16
```
