This performs a substitution of code following the pattern:
let <id> = if let <pat> = ... { identity } else { ... : ! };
To simplify it to:
let <pat> = ... { identity } else { ... : ! };
By adopting the let_else feature.
generic_const_exprs: use thir for abstract consts instead of mir
Changes `AbstractConst` building to use `thir` instead of `mir` so that there's less chance of consts unifying when they shouldn't because lowering to mir dropped information (see `abstract-consts-as-cast-5.rs` test)
