[Mlir-commits] [mlir] Fix block merging (PR #96871)

https://github.com/giuseros created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/96871

With this PR I am trying to address: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/63230. 

What changed:
- While merging identical blocks, don't add a block argument if it is "identical" to another block argument. I.e., if the two block arguments refer to the same `Value`. The operations operands in the block will point to the argument we already inserted
- After merged the blocks, get rid of "unnecessary" arguments. I.e., if all the predecessors pass the same block argument, there is no need to pass it as an argument. 
- This last simplification clashed with `BufferDeallocationSimplification`. The reason, I think, is that the two simplifications are clashing. I.e., `BufferDeallocationSimplification` contains an analysis based on the block structure. If we simplify the block structure (by merging and/or dropping block arguments) the analysis is invalid . The solution I found is to do a more prudent simplification when running that pass. 

**Note**: many tests are still not passing. But I wanted to submit the code before changing all the tests (and probably adding a couple), so that we can agree in principle on the algorithm/design.
