nir: merge some basic consecutive ifs
After trying multiple times to merge if-statements with phis
between them I've come to the conclusion that it cannot be done
without regressions. The problem is for some shaders we end up
with a whole bunch of phis for the merged ifs resulting in
increased register pressure.
So this patch just merges ifs that have no phis between them.
This seems to be consistent with what LLVM does so for radeonsi
we only see a change (although its a large change) in a single
shader.

The cycles estimates reported by shader-db for i965 seem inaccurate
as the only difference in the final code is the removal of the
redundent condition evaluations and jumps.
Also the biggest code reduction (~7%) for radeonsi was in a tomb
raider tressfx shader but for some reason this does not get merged
for i965.
