    cmd/compile: guard the &-to-<<>> opt against small constants · 0321cabd
    David Chase authored
    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.
