c01ecc469d feat: SPIR-V copy-if optimizer — skip zero deltas in GPU shaders
Transforms branch-based patterns to OpSelect:
  Before: 3 blocks, OpBranchConditional, OpPhi
  After: 1 block, OpSelect (single-cycle on most GPUs)

Pattern detection:
  - OpSelectionMerge + OpBranchConditional
  - True block: single compute + OpBranch
  - False block: empty (just OpBranch)
  - Merge block: OpPhi merging true/false values

Transformation:
  - Remove SelectionMerge + BranchConditional
  - Inline compute instruction
  - Replace OpPhi with OpSelect
  - Collapse 3 blocks to 1

Same pattern as:
  - VCN delta+RLE (3.3x): skip zero bytes
  - QR spatial hash (2.18x): skip non-neighbors
  - Lean compilation (2.7x): skip trivial theorems
  - Spatial hash (86.5% cache hit): skip empty cells

Driver-agnostic: works at SPIR-V level before Mesa.
No Mesa fork required. No NIR pass needed.
