This is my first PR to the project.
It is intended to optimize/beautify the code generated in a few trivial trait operations.
Let's take the following code as an example:
At present it is translated into something like:
If you apply my patch, it would become way shorter and cleaner:
Although this change doesn't increase the compilation speed much (I mentioned only about 1-2% boost on "rustc -O -Z time-passes syntax.rs"), but I still think it's a good thing to do as it greatly simplifies/clarifies LL generated in some cases which would definitely help in the future code generation investigations.
I don't provide any new test cases in this patch as it is merely an optimization.
I tried to do "make check" and everything passed well except "run-pass/core-run-destroy.rs", but as far as I can see it doesn't pass on the current branch/master too.
