This reverts commit bc4a63fd3c29c1a8ce22891bf34ee4dccfef578c, this is a
speculative revert to fix a number of sanitizer bots (like
sanitizer-x86_64-linux-bootstrap-ubsan) that have started to see stage2
compiler crashes, presumably due to a miscompile.

trunc (load X) --> load (bitcast X to narrow type)
We have this transform in DAGCombiner::ReduceLoadWidth(), but the truncated
load pattern can interfere with other instcombine transforms, so I'd like to
allow the fold sooner.
Example:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16739
...in that report, we have bitcasts bracketing these ops, so those could get
eliminated too.
We've generally ruled out widening of loads early in IR ( LoadCombine -
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2016-September/105291.html ), but
that reasoning may not apply to narrowing if we can preserve information
such as the dereferenceable range.

I'm not sure if transforming any of these is valid as
a target-independent fold, but we might as well have
a few tests here to confirm or deny our position.
