cmd/compile: guard the &-to-<<>> opt against small constants
Converting an and-K into a pair of shifts for K that will fit in a one-byte argument is probably not an optimization, and it also interferes with other patterns that we want to see fire, like (<< (AND K)) [for small K] and bounds check elimination for masked indices. Turns out that on Intel, even 32-bit signed immediates beat the shift pair; the size reduction of tool binaries is 0.09% vs 0.07% for only the 8-bit immediates. RLH found this one working on the new/next GC.
