UnreachableProp: Preserve unreachable branches for multiple targets
Before, UnreachablePropagation removed all unreachable branches. This was a pessimization, as it removed information about reachability that was used later in the optimization pipeline.
For example, this code
```rust
pub enum Two { A, B }
pub fn identity(x: Two) -> Two {
match x {
Two::A => Two::A,
Two::B => Two::B,
}
}
```
basically has `switchInt() -> [0: 0, 1: 1, otherwise: unreachable]` for the match. This allows it to be transformed into a simple `x`. If we remove the unreachable branch, the transformation becomes illegal.
This was the problem keeping `UnreachablePropagation` from being enabled, so we can enable it now.
Something similar already happened in #77800, but it did not show a perf improvement there. Let's try it again anyways!
Fixes #68105, although that issue has been fixed for a long time (see #77680).
