Emit fewer assumes now that we have range metadata on parameters

We still need the `assume` for the *target* type's range, but we no longer need it for the *source* type's range.

Admittedly there's one test not properly handled by LLVM today, but it's synthetic, so I'd still be fine doing this and just updating the test once LLVM fixes the bug.  All the other optimization tests still pass.

Hopefully this means less crud for LLVM to churn through in `opt` builds...
