optimize: Handle path-excluded Core.ifelse arguments

It's possible for PiNodes to effectively imply statically the condition
of a Core.ifelse. For example:
```julia
    23 ─ %60  = Core.ifelse(%47, false, true)::Bool
    │    %61  = Core.ifelse(%47, %58, false)::Union{Missing, Bool}
    25 ─        goto JuliaLang#27 if not %60
    26 ─ %65  = π (%61, Bool)
    └───        ...
```

In basic block JuliaLang#26, the PiNode gives us enough information to conclude
that `%47 === false` if control flow reaches that point. The previous
code incorrectly assumed that this kind of pruning would only be done
for PhiNodes.

Resolves JuliaLang#50276.
