Subject: [PATCH 1/2] [WebAssembly] Unstackify operands for removed terminators

There are cases we end up removing a conditional branch with a stackified
register condition operand. For example:
```wasm
bb.0:
  %0 = ...    ;; %0 is stackified
  br_if %bb.1, %0
bb.1:
```wasm

In this code, br_if will be removed, so we should unstackify %0 so that
it can be correctly dropped in ExplicitLocals.

There seems no good method to determine which registers to unstackify
without analyzing branches thoroughly, which is supposed to be done
within `updateTerminator()`. So we just unstackify all of them and
restackify the still-remaining registers after `updateTerminator()`.

Fixes #149097.
