This patch canonicalizes constant expression GEPs to use i8 source element type, aka ptradd. This is the ConstantFolding equivalent of the InstCombine canonicalization introduced in #68882. I believe all our optimizations working on constant expression GEPs (like GlobalOpt etc) have already been switched to work on offsets, so I don't expect any significant fallout from this change. This is part of: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-replacing-getelementptr-with-ptradd/68699
