Auto merge of #45821 - djzin:unreachable-match-arms, r=nikomatsakis
always add an unreachable branch on matches to give more info to llvm
As part of https://github.com/djzin/rustc-optimization I discovered that some simple enum optimizations (src/unary/three_valued_enum.rs and src/unary/four_valued_enum.rs in the repo) are not applied - and the reason for this is that we erase the info that the discriminant of an enum is one of the options by putting the last one in an "otherwise" branch. This patch adds an extra branch so that LLVM can know what the possibilities are for the discriminant, which fixes the three- and four- valued cases.
Note that for whatever reason, this doesn't fix the case of 2 variants (most notably `Option` and `Result` have 2 variants) - a pass re-ordering might fix this or we may wish to add "assume" annotations on discriminants to force it to optimize.
